> Spinoff from David's idea on LUCENE-4258
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4258?focusedCommentId=13534352&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13534352 )
> I made a prototype patch that allows custom per-segment "side-car
> data".  It adds an abstract ExternalSegmentData class.  The idea is
> the app implements this, and IndexWriter will pass each Document
> through to it, and call on it to do flushing/merging.  I added a
> setter to IndexWriterConfig to enable it, but I think this would
> really belong in Codec ...
> I haven't tackled the read-side yet, though this is already usable
> without that (ie, the app can just open its own files, read them,
> etc.).
> The random test case passes.
> I think for example this might make it easier for Solr/ElasticSearch
> to implement things like ExternalFileField.
