FYI, I'm working on revamping lucene spatial in general
https://lucene-spatial-playground.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
http://code.google.com/p/lucene-spatial-playground/

These are just sketch APIs for now, but i hope to get them cleaned up
and contributed soon.

The proposal will be for 3 packages in /modules
1. spatial stuff w/o lucene dependencies -- shapes, distances, etc
2. lucene support for these types
3. solr support for the lucene stuff
(4) demo, probably keep this as an external project since UI and demo
stuff is much easier on the outside.

I hope to migrate the existing spatial stuff to this structure and
remove the not-really-working stuff.

I'll post more when things are closer to commitable.
