I've faced the very same problem with NearSpansOrdered and so on.
I think
unless there is a very good reason for it, classes should be made
public,
this would at least make the "delegate" design pattern available.
Lucene has historically taken the exact opposite approach... open
up the API as needed. Unless there is very good reason for it,
classes and data should be kept private.
You bring up some points that need to be made to justify opening up
specific classes. Sounds like a good discussion for the java-dev
list on a case by case basis.
I am doing some work on Spans (albeit slowly), perhaps you can
describe your needs on java-dev (citing this thread) and we can see
what comes of it?
Cheers,
