Houston Putman reopened SOLR-10808:
-----------------------------------
I'm going back and making the list of fields supported explicit.
This is because if docValues are added to fields after this Solr version (for
example if SOLR-10255 was added in the next version), then the code will
default the docValues=true when users upgrade to the new version. This will
break users indexes, because docValues cannot be added in-place.
Therefore we are going to make the option opt-in. Existing fieldTypes should
not add this in the future, as it will make indexes non-compatible. However new
field types are free to enable it, because users won't be upgrading with fields
that do not have docValues (as the field type did not previously exist).

> This would be fairly easy to do – we just bump up the "schema version" and
> change the default for docValues in the affected FieldTypes (or perhaps in
> PrimitiveFieldType? Just like OMIT_NORMS ? ... Need to think about that a bit
