Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-2019:
-------------------------------------

bq. if you disagree with this patch, then you should also disagree with 
treating U+FFFF special! 

Quoting myself from an earlier comment on this issue (apoligies):

bq. Instituting this consistency precludes Lucene-index-as-process-internal use 
cases. I would argue that the price of consistency is in this case too high.

So you think that enforcing consistency is worth the cost of disallowing some 
usages, and I don't.

> 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.
