------------------------------------

This is good point Robert, but I don't like the one huge .jar either, just 
because it contains everything. I think that it's ok if this .jar breaks - we 
don't guarantee anything. If something breaks, we can add the needed classes?

I see a different tradeoff: 'maybe' breaking an unsupporte .jar to 'always' 
fetching a 7MB useless file ...

I don't think this should hold us back when maintaining tests. It's like "ant 
eclipse/idea/maven" -- not too many guarantees besides "we're gonna do the best 
we can to maintain it" (it being the .jar, not tests).

> Generate jar containing test classes.

> The test classes are useful for writing unit tests for code external to the 
> Lucene project. It would be helpful to build a jar of these classes and 
> publish them as a maven dependency.
