Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-8516:
-------------------------------------

It just doesnt seem like it will really improve anything if it takes that 
tokenizer parameter. Depending on what the tokenizer does, it may still be 
buggy just like before. still a tokenfilter in disguise. That is clear from the 
api being totally wrong (tokenizer taking tokenizer as input).

> Being able to split tokens up at arbitrary points in a filter chain, in 
> effect adding a second round of tokenization, can cause any number of 
> problems when trying to keep tokenstreams to contract.  The most common 
> offender here is the WordDelimiterGraphFilter, which can produce broken 
> offsets in a wide range of situations.
> We should make WDGF a Tokenizer in its own right, which should preserve all 
> the functionality we need, but make reasoning about the resulting tokenstream 
> much simpler.
