We can add a note to FSDirectory about that. For IndexWriter/IndexReader this hint is no longer needed (in Lucene 2.9), as all methods taking String/File instead of Directory are deprecated and users should create directory instances and then will automatically get to the place where the LockFactory can be supplied.
