Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-219:
----------------------------------

Agree with Gunnar that the problem is wider than lowercasing. How hard would it 
be to let each filter choose whether to work on prefix terms or not, and run 
them through analysis?

A use case is for the Nordic characters æøåäö. A Norwegian name "Øyvind" would 
typically be normalized and indexed as "oeyvind", and when a swede searches for 
"Öyvin*", he'd get match if at least the mappingCharFilter and LowercaseFilter 
were allowed to run and turn the query into "oeyvin*".

> Determine if prefix, wildcard, fuzzy queries should be lowercased

> Solr should be able to "do the right thing" when doing prefix/wildcard/fuzzy 
> queries on fields with respect to lowercasing or not.
