Custom SchemaField object
-------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-2146
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2146
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Schema and Analysis
            Reporter: Renaud Delbru
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.1


There is some use cases that require to extend SchemaField objects with 
"attributes" or "properties".
For example, I would like to be able to assign a specific "term mapping file" 
for each of my field. Each field name will have a "mapping file" associated 
that I can access at query time using the IndexSchema object.

The FieldType object already enables the addition of attributes. However, these 
attributes are "local" to a field type, not a field definition. Multiple fields 
can have the same field types, which is not suitable for our use cases. 
One possible solution will be to create one field type per field definition, 
but this is more a dirty hack: it means duplicating field types, making them 
more difficult to maintain.
