Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-4861:
-------------------------------------

maybe we can nuke breakiterator from the ctor alltogether and have something 
like:

{code}
protected BreakIterator getBreakIterator(String field) {
  return BreakIterator.getSentenceInstance(Locale.ROOT);
}
{code}

we'd call this once per-request and remove the clone() we currently have. I 
think this is really fast
with most of the JDK breakiterators and if someone has a heavy-duty custom one, 
they could just clone()
from their own singleton themselves?
                
> can we use a single PostingsHighlighter for both whole and snippet 
> highlighting?

> Right now, because we pass the BreakIterator to the ctor, you have to make 
> two instances if you sometimes want whole and sometimes want snippets.
> But I think this is a fairly common use case, eg I want entire title field 
> (with matches highlighted) but I want body field (snippets + highlights).  It 
> would be nice to have this work with a single instance ...
