bq. But it has become evident, recently, that efforts to refactor Lucene/Solr 
sources to their natural places are in fact strongly resisted

I think Simon nailed it on the head: [Lucene & Solr a one-way 
street?|http://www.lucidimagination.com/search/document/611587952daf6e48/lucene_solr_a_one_way_street].
  I find it difficult to defend this relationship, which was supposed to be 
symbiotic (benefitting both Solr and Lucene), but which increasingly looks 
parasitic (i.e. most benefits accrue to Solr, and most costs are borne by 
Lucene).

I agree with Mark: Robert's veto is political, in that it is based solely on a 
question of policy.  I believe that Robert means to directly force 
re-examination of the Solr/Lucene merger, and vetoing this issue is a means to 
that end.

bq. It's simply preposterous that an improvement to Solr be blocked because 
some might want a lucene-usable module too.

But if this is true, then it *must* also be true that refactoring is possible, 
and not just in theory.
