Robert Muir commented on SOLR-5084:
-----------------------------------

This issue is interesting but its difficult to see the changes due to all the 
reformatting in the patch (e.g. changing existing 2-space indent to 4-space 
indent).

Is it possible to fix this in the patch? See 
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute#Creating_the_patch_file

Thanks

> We have encountered a use case in our system where we have a few fields 
> (Severity. Risk etc) with a closed set of values, where the sort order for 
> these values is pre-determined but not lexicographic (Critical is higher than 
> High). Generically this is very close to how enums work.
> To implement, I have prototyped a new type of field: EnumField where the 
> inputs are a closed predefined  set of strings in a special configuration 
> file (similar to currency.xml).
> The code is based on 4.2.1.
