Yet if you have a field like "title" and the user and system are Turkish, the user would expect their locale to apply, yet LowerCaseFilter will not handle that. So whereas it is "safe" for English hard-coded strings, it isn't safe for all fields you might index in general. Dawid's response shows, though, that at least for the time being, there is nothing to worry about. Hopefully Unicode will never add a code point which lowercases to one with less code units (or I guess changes one of the lower ones to lowercase to more than one...)
