It would be nice to have "unformatted" or "timestamp" or "long" (maybe all
three) as an accepted format for the parse date update processor. Seems like
a reasonable use case. But... the standard use of parsing is to chain the
types in a hierarchy, with date and then numbers, so that would cause the
date update processor to gobble up plain numbers since that processing is
not based on actual schema field type. So, what is really needed is for
TrieDateField itself to recognize a pure numeric as a timestamp. My personal
preference would be for TrieDateField to support all the common date formats
anyway, eliminating the need for the parse date update processor - a Solr
band-aid to cover the weakness of the Lucene feature.

If you're using Solrj then you can just add the Date object to
SolrInputDocument and everything will be taken care of. But if you are
directly uploading data with a date like that then the only option is to
use a ScriptUpdateProcessor to convert the long to a java Date.

Hello,
My data comes with the timestamp 12345654. I want that indexed as a date.
It does not seem to be happening with default date type and none of
the URPs seem to recognize that format.
Is there something terribly obvious I am missing?
