Implementing a reader over Accumulo and FieldNorms type?

I'm experimenting with an IndexReader design over Accumulo and am wondering
what valid DocValues types are for norms in the FieldInfo constructor.

The actual fieldNorms method returns a numericDocValues, and norms have
historically always been numeric values. Is numeric the only valid type
here or are there other valid types? What is the point of this option?
