I am curious about this as well. I often have to read an entire stream into a string just to be able to store the value in the index. It would be nice if there was a way to specify that a field is to be stored regardless if it is a Reader value or a String value. And the same argument could be made for the UnIndexed() and UnStored() methods which only accept Strings.
