David Smiley commented on LUCENE-8344:
--------------------------------------

The patch fixes the issue and has a couple tests.  It's a bit WIP; I just want 
to get this up here for you all to see.  I don't intend on working more on it 
today.  I think we need to identify back-compat issues with this.  Is it okay 
to tell people that on a minor release that they need to rebuild their 
suggester index to avoid this edge case bug?  For the NRT Doc Suggester, that 
may be a lot to task as it's not a side-car index.

> TokenStreamToAutomaton in Lucene core is used by the AnalyzingSuggester 
> (incl. FuzzySuggester subclass ) and NRT Document Suggester and soon the 
> SolrTextTagger.  It has a setting {{preservePositionIncrements}} defaulting 
> to true.  If it's set to false (e.g. to ignore stopwords) and if there is a 
> _trailing_ position increment greater than 1, TS2A will _still_ add position 
> increments (holes) into the automata even though it was configured not to.
> I'm filing this issue separate from LUCENE-8332 where I first found it.  The 
> fix is very simple but I'm concerned about back-compat ramifications so I'm 
> filing it separately.  I'll attach a patch to show the problem.
