Shawn Heisey commented on LUCENE-7960:
--------------------------------------
I have basically come to the conclusion that I have absolutely no idea how this
stuff works and cannot make any sense out of what the patch does, or even what
the classes are doing *before* the modifications.
> NGram filters -- add option to keep short terms
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-7960
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7960
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: modules/analysis
> Reporter: Shawn Heisey
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> When ngram or edgengram filters are used, any terms that are shorter than the
> minGramSize are completely removed from the token stream.
> This is probably 100% what was intended, but I've seen it cause a lot of
> problems for users. I am not suggesting that the default behavior be
> changed. That would be far too disruptive to the existing user base.
> I do think there should be a new boolean option, with a name like
> keepShortTerms, that defaults to false, to allow the short terms to be
> preserved.
