I wonder how many users are affected by this now.

It's not called out currently in CHANGES.txt but I think it should be
(this would be under LUCENE-672 I think)?  Is there a simple way to
characterize the cases when this would happen?

If the number of buffered docs at the close plus the number of docs in
the last non-ram segment was greater than mergeFactor, then a new
segment would be created.

Still doesn't roll off the toungue nicely, but I agree an update to
CHANGES calling this out might be in order.
