Why is there no KeywordAnalyzer? That is, an analyzer which doesn't mess with its input in any way, but just returns it as-is?
I realize that under most circumstances, it would probably be more code to use it than just constructing a TermQuery, but having it would regularize query handling, and simplify new users' experience. And for the purposes of the PerFieldAnalyzerWrapper, it could be helpful.
It's long been on my TODO list. I just adapted (changed the package names) the Lucene in Action KeywordAnalyzer and added it to the new contrib area:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/trunk/contrib/analyzers/ src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/KeywordAnalyzer.java
In the next official release of Lucene, the contrib (formerly known as the Sandbox) components will be packaged along with the Lucene core. I'm still working on this packaging build process as I migrate the Sandbox over to contrib.
