Alan Woodward commented on LUCENE-8516:
---------------------------------------
Comment from [[email protected]]:
My current usage of this filter requires it to be a filter, since I need to
precede it with other filters. I think the idea of not touching offsets
preserves more flexibility, and since the offsets are already unreliable, we
wouldn't be losing much.

> 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.
