While we're at it, can we get rid of the final that prevents subclassing?
Mainly I want to be able to change how hashCode works (either the hash itself,
or be able to cache like String does).

I think if we clean up the API this would be a safe thing to do. Maybe instead
of
the whole class being final, only a few methods really need to be final (or
maybe none at all).

> Key: LUCENE-3590

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Setting this as blocker for 4.0, as this class is used in every API there.
> Currently this API is a little of a everything, sometimes its like a
> stringbuffer, it
> does numeric conversions, all kinds of stuff.
> We need this to be a ref to a byte[], nothing else. This other stuff can go
> somewhere else.
