Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3206:
---------------------------------------

The term index is sorted by utf8 bytes natively. So a FST build on term index 
must assume that order, because the terms must be presorted for Builder. Lucene 
internally only works on byte[] and uses per default this order. Also most 
queries rely on it.

> The current API is still marked @experimental, so I think there's still time 
> to fiddle with it. I've been using the current API for some time and I do 
> have some ideas for improvement. This is a placeholder for these -- I'll post 
> a patch once I have a working proof of concept.
