bq. Or remove them entirely (but, then, core tests will need to use contrib 
analyzers for their testing)...

For that I proposed to have a default TestAttributeSourceImpl, which does 
whitespace tokenization or something. If other 'core' tests need something 
else, we can write specific AttributeSources for them. I hope we can avoid 
introducing any dependency of core on contrib.

Only tests would rely on the analyzers module.  I think that's OK?  core itself 
would have no dependence.

> IndexWriter only needs an AttributeSource to do indexing.
> Yet, today, it interacts with Field instances, holds a private
> analyzers, invokes analyzer.reusableTokenStream, has to deal with a
> wide variety (it's not analyzed; it is analyzed but it's a Reader,
> String; it's pre-analyzed).
> I'd like to have IW only interact with attr sources that already
> arrived with the fields.  This would be a powerful decoupling -- it
> means others are free to make their own attr sources.
> They need not even use any of Lucene's analysis impls; eg they can
> integrate to other things like [OpenPipeline|http://www.openpipeline.org].
> Or make something completely custom.
> LUCENE-2302 is already a big step towards this: it makes IW agnostic
> about which attr is "the term", and only requires that it provide a
> BytesRef (for flex).
> Then I think LUCENE-2308 would get us most of the remaining way -- ie, if the
> FieldType knows the analyzer to use, then we could simply create a
> getAttrSource() method (say) on it and move all the logic IW has today
> onto there.  (We'd still need existing IW code for back-compat).
