Grant Ingersoll commented on SOLR-1131:
---------------------------------------

bq. It is not clear as to why can't the 'sf' instance be cached and reused? 

Because there is no way to change the name on a SchemaField w/o changing 
SchemaField to be non-final.  I don't think SchemaField should be non-final.

bq. Why do we have a map for flags why not use a bitset?

Yeah, we could add a new method that takes a bitset, b/c I believe that is what 
is used under the hood anyway.

> In a few special cases, it makes sense for a single "field" (the concept) to 
> be indexed as a set of Fields (lucene Field).  Consider SOLR-773.  The 
> concept "point" may be best indexed in a variety of ways:
>  * geohash (sincle lucene field)
>  * lat field, lon field (two double fields)
>  * cartesian tiers (a series of fields with tokens to say if it exists within 
> that region)
