But at this point... why mess with it? "consistency"?

Yes, consistency. And the fact that applying this patch doesn't break anything,
it just cleans it up. With respect to "why mess with it", I guess my question
is: why not?
Furthermore, like I said above, the placement of ValueSource and
FieldCacheSource in the o.a.solr.search.function package suggests that these
classes and their children likely belong in that package rather than
o.a.solr.schema, or furthermore that some refactoring is necessary. This is an
initial step towards that refactoring.
> Inner class FieldCacheSources should be refactored into their own classes

> While working on SOLR-1586 I noticed that outside of class level access (or
> package level), you can't really reference FieldCacheSources that are defined
> inside of their FieldType constituents (e.g., in the case of StrFieldSource
> as defined in StrField). What's more troubling is that the
> FieldType/FieldCacheSources are defined in an inconsistent fashion: some are
> done as inner classes, e.g., StrFieldSource and SortableFloatFieldSource,
> while others are defined as individual classes (e.g., FloatFIeldSource). This
> patch will make them all consistent and define each FieldCacheSource as an
> outside class, present in o.a.solr.search.function.
