Doug Cutting commented on LUCENE-819:
-------------------------------------
It would be best to check for null in the constructor rather than in the
comparator. If an exception is unacceptable, might it be reasonable to change
the constructor to interpret null as the empty string? Personally, I'd prefer
the exception, but that might break applications.
