Hoss Man commented on SOLR-3140:
--------------------------------
bq. Is there a better place to set this default than in init() in the new base
class?
probably not
bq. Should StrField or other fields also have omitNorms as default?
I don't think so? if you search on a multivalued string field like "keywords"
or "tags" it's reasonable to want length normalization to be a factor to
prevent keyword stuffing.
> Make omitNorms default for all numeric field types

> Today norms are enabled for all Solr field types by default, while in Lucene
> norms are omitted for the numeric types.
> Propose to make the Solr defaults the same as in Lucene, so that if someone
> occasionally wants index-side boost for a numeric field type they must say
> omitNorms="false". This lets us simplify the example schema too.
