Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2090:
--------------------------------------------

BTW, we've discussed someday having a codec whose terms dict (or maybe just 
terms index) is represented as an FST, at which point AutomatonTermsEnum would 
be an intersection + walk of two FSTs.  Because suffix's are also shared in the 
FST, you could more easily (more efficiently) handle *XXX cases as well (it'd 
just be symmetic with the XXX* cases).

> convert automaton to char[] based processing and TermRef / TermsEnum api

> The automaton processing is currently done with String, mostly because 
> TermEnum is based on String.
> it is easy to change the processing to work with char[], since behind the 
> scenes this is used anyway.
> in general I think we should make sure char[] based processing is exposed in 
> the automaton pkg anyway, for things like pattern-based tokenizers and such.
