Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-1689:
-------------------------------------
bq. If there is nothing we can do here, then we just have to do the best we can
-
Oh there is definitely a choice. and as I said, I am willing to help either way
we go.
I am just warning there will be a lot more complexity if we want to use say,
Version to support both broken implementation and fixed implementation.
lots of tests, and hopefully no bugs :(
Uwe already commented he would like it controlled with Version, just saying
suppl. characters are notoriously tricky as it is!

> for Java 5. Java 5 is based on unicode 4, which means variable-width encoding.
> supplementary character support should be fixed for code that works with
> char/char[]
> For example:
> StandardAnalyzer, SimpleAnalyzer, StopAnalyzer, etc should at least be
> changed so they don't actually remove suppl characters, or modified to look
> for surrogates and behave correctly.
> LowercaseFilter should be modified to lowercase suppl. characters correctly.
> CharTokenizer should either be deprecated or changed so that isTokenChar()
> and normalize() use int.
> in all of these cases code should remain optimized for the BMP case, and
> suppl characters should be the exception, but still work.
