Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1131:
------------------------------------
bq. That's inherited from a more general mechanism that would allow multiple
field types.
But multiple sub-field types would be used for different things, and should
hence be separate parameters? So if a field type indexed points separately and
indexed a field that contains a list of cartesian tiers, I could see the params
being
<fieldType ..., coordinateType="..." cartesianTierType="..."/>
(or coordinateSuffix / cartesianTierSuffix)
> Allow a single field type to index multiple fields

> In a few special cases, it makes sense for a single "field" (the concept) to
> be indexed as a set of Fields (lucene Field). Consider SOLR-773. The
> concept "point" may be best indexed in a variety of ways:
> * geohash (sincle lucene field)
> * lat field, lon field (two double fields)
> * cartesian tiers (a series of fields with tokens to say if it exists within
> that region)
