Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3714:
-------------------------------------

Dawid thanks for the comments: we can remove that first nocommit and then add 
an option
for the second one...

I think as a step to move this forward we have to fix the output encoding to 
not be (Integer.MAX_VALUE-weight). 

Seems like the best first step is to generify findMinPairs to T and to allow an 
arbitrary Comparator
so that we can muck around with the algebra? I looked at this and it seems 
possible...

> Currently the FST suggester (really an FSA) quantizes weights into buckets 
> (e.g. single byte) and puts them in front of the word.
> This makes it fast, but you lose granularity in your suggestions.
> Lately the question was raised, if you build lucene's FST with 
> positiveintoutputs, does it behave the same as a tropical semiring wFST?
> In other words, after completing the word, we instead traverse min(output) at 
> each node to find the 'shortest path' to the 
> best suggestion (with the highest score).
> This means we wouldnt need to quantize weights at all and it might make some 
> operations (e.g. adding fuzzy matching etc) a lot easier.
