Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3080:
-------------------------------------
Right, because highlighters are designed for doing a lot of high-level things
on text to bring out (hopefully good) snippets, e.g. various segmentation and
fragmenting and whatever they do, I think it would be best if they continued to
work on char[]. This makes it easier for people to extend the APIs.
I agree with the idea of somehow adding a check or assert to prevent Numerics
from being highlighted... I don't think it makes sense to highlight
NumericFields.

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: contrib/highlighter
> Reporter: Michael McCandless

> Highlighter still uses char[] terms (consumes tokens from the analyzer as
> char[] not as BytesRef), which is causing problems for merging SOLR-2497 to
> trunk.
