Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1632:
------------------------------------
bq. (BTW, I'm aware that passing around blobs of base64 inside SolrParams is
ugly. I'm open to suggestions how to handle this better).
I'd prefer non-base64 at the Solr transport level (e.g.
termStats=how,now,brown,cow). It will be both smaller, and much easier to
debug other things.
Although Lucene can technically index arbitrary binary now, Solr does not use
that anywhere (and won't for 4.0). It would take a good amount of
infrastructure work all over to truly allow that. If/when we allow arbitrary
binary terms, it should be relatively easy to extend the syntax we pick today
to allow selectively base64 encoded terms.
There are already a number of places in Solr where we use StrUtil.join (a comma
separated list of strings) to specify a list of terms (both in distrib faceting
and distrib search for example).
