Yes. That's what I was proposing. And it's true - the stop word lists in Snowball are quite good. I did offer wordlists for some languages that weren't complete to Martin (Porter) - I don't know if they are included or not. In any case, this was just to confirm their existence. In the test cases I had built for my earlier Snowball-Lucene integration, I did use these lists for the analyzers and also made sure to exclude them from the tests (since the analyzer would remove them...)

I think you're proposing that the classes in http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/lucene-sandbox/snowball/api/ be added to the core Lucene jar and release. Is that right? I don't have a problem with this. Do others? The Javadoc should probably also include a pointer to: http://snowball.tartarus.org/ And I just noticed that Snowball has stop lists for most of the languages too. It would be good for the analyzer to use these too, at least as an option. I can probably make these changes in the next week or so.
