Kay Kay commented on SOLR-969:
------------------------------

I agree String-s are portable. But choosing an enum would still be orthogonal 
to Strings thanks to the Enum.valueOf(String) method - We can still regenerate 
the enum from the String representation (in case of non-Java languages). 

In any case - Context seems to be restricted to DIH and seems to be available 
since 1.3  only . So making the change now might be more intuitive to the 
developer instead of misusing with integers not meant to be passed as an 
argument in the first place. 

> Context#FULL_DUMP, DELTA_DUMP, FIND_DELTA as an enum
