Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2019:
-------------------------------------
Steven, yes you are arguing the interchange part.
I am arguing the treatment of a *noncharacter* as an *abstract character*.
If a lucene index stores a noncharacter as if it were any other character (i.e.
within a Term), then its treated as an abstract character.
if you disagree with this patch, then you should also disagree with treating
U+FFFF special!
I don't see how in the world U+FFFF is different than any other codepoint in
the noncharacter category in this regard!

> A spinoff from LUCENE-2016.
> There are several process-internal codepoints in unicode, we should not store
> these in the index.
> Instead they should be mapped to replacement character (U+FFFD), so they can
> be used process-internally.
> An example of this is how Lucene Java currently uses U+FFFF
> process-internally, it can't be in the index or will cause problems.
