This has been proposed several times, it's time to try converging on a stable API for Hibernate Search 5, and I have the idea that actual plans to remove the dependency are not mature.
I would then propose to re-purpose HSEARCH-1213 to not fully remove hibernate-commons-annotations but to use it as an implementation detail only: make sure we hide it from user API, so to allow us to remove it later when possibly Hibernate ORM will be aligned on these plans too. Any suggestion on how we could verify this is done correctly? I thought of using checkstyle to consider it a violation to import HANN classes in the tests, but that's probably not solid enough - and some tests might need exceptions to the rule.
