[jira] Commented: (SOLR-1131) Allow a single field type to index multiple fields

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12786586#action_12786586 ] 

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

Hey Yonik,

One of the things I was debating was whether it was worthwhile to keep the single field creation or not.  I see in your patch you drop it.  I've got a patch that keeps it.  I will try to put it up this week.

> 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)
