Matt Schraeder commented on SOLR-1270:
--------------------------------------
Personally I think that's a perfect compromise. As long as the JSON coming back
is valid I'm a happy camper and can deal with accidentally indexing invalid
data. The patch looks good to me, with my limited knowledge of Solr's source.

> The FloatField field type takes any string value at index. These values
> aren't necessarily in JSON numeric, but the JSON writer does not check its
> validity before writing it out as a JSON numeric.
> I'm aware of the SortableFloatField which does do index time verification and
> conversion of the value, but the way the JSON writer is working seemed like
> either a bug that needed addressed or perhaps a gotch that needs better
> documented?
> This issue originally came from my php client issue tracker:
