Grant Ingersoll commented on LUCENE-1137:
-----------------------------------------

Never mind on the isClaimed() idea, I don't see a good way of how that would 
work.

> Token type as BitSet: typeBits()

> It is sometimes useful to have a more compact, easy to parse, type 
> representation for Token than the current type() String.  This patch adds a 
> BitSet onto Token, defaulting to null, with accessors for setting bit flags 
> on a Token.  This is useful for communicating information about a token to 
> TokenFilters further down the chain.  
> For example, in the WikipediaTokenizer, the possibility exists that a token 
> could be both a category and bold (or many other variations), yet it is 
> difficult to communicate this without adding in a lot of different Strings 
> for type.  Unlike using the payload information (which could serve this 
> purpose), the BitSet does not get added to the index (although one could 
> easily convert it to a payload.)
