--------------------------------------

> one hitch might be that SegmentReader.get is public, and in order to keep 
> supporting it, SegmentReader still needs to have/inherit the same segment

> and directory owning/locking code that we want to move out of IndexReader (so

OK, I implemented the DirectoryIndexReader approach. Also because I'm not sure 
about the performance characteristics of a MultiSegmentReader acting as a 
SegmentReader. 

I'd like to commit this rather soon. A review of the patch would be highly 
appreciated.

> References to segmentInfos in IndexReader cause different kinds of problems
> for subclasses of IndexReader, like e. g. MultiReader.
> Only subclasses of IndexReader that own the index directory, namely 
> SegmentReader and MultiSegmentReader, should have a SegmentInfos object
> and be able to access it.
