             Summary: Add a custom separator break iterator
                 Key: LUCENE-6485
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6485
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Luca Cavanna


Lucene currently includes a WholeBreakIterator used to highlight entire fields 
using the postings highlighter, without breaking their content into sentences.

I would like to contribute a CustomSeparatorBreakIterator that breaks when a 
custom char separator is found in the text. This can be used for instance when 
wanting to highlight entire fields, value per value. One can subclass 
PostingsHighlighter and have getMultiValueSeparator return a control character, 
like U+0000 , then use the custom break iterator to break on U+0000 so that one 
snippet per value will be generated.
