Misc API Brainstorming for 3.0

3.0 will give us a lot of opportunity to "wipe the slate" of past API transgressions, here's a good place to list misc stuff that might be worth pursuing.

Replace Interfaces with Abstract Classes

? good examples ?

Separate indexing/searching Document/Field APIs

Some past discussion...

• https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-778
• http://www.nabble.com/Fieldable%2C-AbstractField%2C-Field-to16108347.html
  

Change internal doc ids to be longs
