             Summary: Rename AtomicReader to LeafReader
                 Key: LUCENE-5569
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5569
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 5.0


See LUCENE-5527 for more context: several of us seem to prefer {{Leaf}} to 
{{Atomic}}.

Talking from my experience, I was a bit confused in the beginning that this 
thing is named {{AtomicReader}}, since {{Atomic}} is otherwise used in Java in 
the context of concurrency. So maybe renaming it to {{Leaf}} would help remove 
this confusion and also carry the information that these readers are used as 
leaves of top-level readers?
