Just one question: What happens with indexes that already had compressed 
fields. Do they behave as before?

*edit*

>From the patch I see that you also removed the bitmask for testing compression 
>in index format. So an index with compressed fields from 2.9 should behave 
>undefined. In my opinion, support for reading compressed fields should stay 
>available, but not for writing. And: as soon as segments are merged, they 
>should get silently uncompressed (what should be no problem if the special 
>FieldForMerge is no longer used).

Also the constant bitmask for compression should stay "reserved" for futrure 
use.
