Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-2544:
---------------------------------------
I agree, this issue will not be fixed as I see no reason to do this. Thanks for
closing!
> Add 'divisor' to NumericField, allows for easy storage of full precision
> data, but indexing *starting* at lower precision.

>
> In some cases, we want to index a timestamp or some other high precision
> numeric at a much lower precision, but we still want to store the full
> precision data.
> Rather than have to do this with two Field objects in the Document, it'd be
> easier to provide NumericField with a divisor as well as prevision step. The
> divisor would apply before beginning the trie logic.
> most often, this is a divide by 1, but that will happen only during the
> constructor or setXXXValue() in NumericTokenStream.
> I have the patch for this, or i will after i isolate it.
