I think this needs a bit more explanation. AIUI, the primary cause for concern
is that by making something a module, you are taking a private, internal API of
Solr's and now making it a public API that must be maintained (and backwards
maintained) which could slow down development as one now needs to be concerned
with more factors than you would if it were merely an implementation detail in
Solr.
Can we solve this? It seems like for lucene users, they currently only have this choice:
A. no access to feature X at all
but, couldn't they at least have this choice:
A. no access to feature X at all B. having access to some feature, but it has relaxed backwards compatibility to address the concern.
In other words, we could mark the api @experimental or whatever, and the user can choose not to use it from a lucene level if they don't want to deal with upgrade hassles.
