: copyField do. Specifically, I'd like to say that any field that matches a
: given pattern should be copied to a specific multivalued destination field.
...
: Has anything like this been discussed or implemented before?
It's been discussed, which prompted a FAQ about it, but no one has had the
need/drive to impliment anything beyond what's currently supported...

It would be a fairly cool feature to have though if you're interested in
implimenting it. One thing i wasn't clear on in your email though...
: file. If a field name matches both a dynamicField and a dynamicCopyField,
: then both behaviors should probably occur, although config files will not
: typically be written this way.
...why not? Isn't that the most common case? (declaring a dynamicField
with the pattern "*_t" and having a dynamicCopyField that writes copies
anything matching "*_t" to a generic "text" field).
