-----------------------------------------

bq. [Carrying over discussions on IRC with Chris Male & Uwe...]

That make it very hard to participate. I can not afford to read through all IRC 
stuff and I don't get the chance to participate directly unless I watch IRC 
constantly. We should really move back to JIRA / devlist for such discussions. 
There is too much going on in IRC.

Actually, TokenStream is already AttrSource + incrementing, so it
seems like the right start...

But that binds the Indexer to a tokenstream which is unnecessary IMO. What if I 
want to implement something aside the TokenStream delegator API?

> 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).
