Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-1689:
-------------------------------------
I don't know if this is the right place to point this out, but: JFlex-generated
scanners (e.g. StandardAnalyzer) do not properly handle supplementary
characters.
Unfortunately, it looks like the as-yet-unreleased JFlex 1.5 will not support
supplementary characters either, so this will be a gap in Lucene's Unicode
handling for a while.

> for Java 5. Java 5 is based on unicode 4, which means variable-width encoding.
> supplementary character support should be fixed for code that works with
> char/char[]
> For example:
> StandardAnalyzer, SimpleAnalyzer, StopAnalyzer, etc should at least be
> changed so they don't actually remove suppl characters, or modified to look
> for surrogates and behave correctly.
> LowercaseFilter should be modified to lowercase suppl. characters correctly.
> CharTokenizer should either be deprecated or changed so that isTokenChar()
> and normalize() use int.
> in all of these cases code should remain optimized for the BMP case, and
> suppl characters should be the exception, but still work.
