Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-1584:
------------------------------------------

We can make it protected that way it's expert level and a user
needs to inherit from IndexWriter to use it. I don't think today
it's possible to simply inherit from IW to get the merge
information because IW.merge is final, and there needs to be a
way to know the merge was successful.
