Shawn Heisey commented on LUCENE-7960:
--------------------------------------
On first blush, an enum seems even more of a mess than one or two extra boolean
parameters. I will let [~rcmuir] and others with more experience in these
matters make the call on that. How would the factory (and by extension, text
configuration files) handle it?
If two boolean parameters is going to meet with resistance, I can support
preserveOriginal. I think users will want long and short handled separately,
but one flag would get the job done.

> When ngram or edgengram filters are used, any terms that are shorter than the
> minGramSize are completely removed from the token stream.
> This is probably 100% what was intended, but I've seen it cause a lot of
> problems for users. I am not suggesting that the default behavior be
> changed. That would be far too disruptive to the existing user base.
> I do think there should be a new boolean option, with a name like
> keepShortTerms, that defaults to false, to allow the short terms to be
> preserved.
