Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-6737:
---------------------------------------
Ignore my last comment: The filter needs more Unicode info than
Character#isDigit().
> Add DecimalDigitFilter

> TokenFilter that folds all unicode digits
> (http://unicode.org/cldr/utility/list-unicodeset.jsp?a=[:General_Category=Decimal_Number:])
> to 0-9.
> Historically a lot of the impacted analyzers couldn't even tokenize numbers
> at all, but now they use standardtokenizer for numbers/alphanum tokens. But
> its usually the case you will find e.g. a mix of both ascii digits and
> "native" digits, and today that makes searching difficult.
> Note this only impacts *decimal* digits, hence the name DecimalDigitFilter.
> So no processing of chinese numerals or anything crazy like that.
