> While looking at LUCENE-3233, i noticed a few things:
> * lots of internal methods (e.g. copy) use grow(). I don't think they should do this. CharsRef should work like BytesRef, i don't think it needs to be a stringbuffer. i think its ok to expose a public grow() method like we did for bytesref though.
> * the append() method is totally confusing, and doesnt make sense compared to BytesRef, copy() might also have issues.
> * a lot of these methods are unused, we should at least add tests for them, or remove ones we don't need.
