I guess we'd add a Fieldable.setOmitPositions?  And then save that in
FieldInfos, and fix the postings writing/reading to respect it?  Ie,
we can just change the index format.  Encoding as negative numbers

Yes, that's what I had in mind. I was a bit shy of bumping the format version, but likely there will be other changes that we can put under the same next version of the format.

isn't great because the termFreq is written as a vInt, which consumes
5 bytes to encode any negative number.  Wanna cough up a patch?

Heh .. that's the right term for it, I haven't looked at the details of oal.index.* since 2.4-ish or so ... we'll see ;)

Ehh, sorry - I think I'll give up for now, after looking at the combinatoric increase in the number of arguments to various indexing classes ...
