If this gets accepted, it also needs a better name. It looks reasonable to me. As for names, IndexWriter would be a good one for this, and IndexAppender would be a better name for what's now called IndexWriter. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to make that change back-compatibly. So perhaps this could be called IndexModifier. We could still rename IndexWriter to IndexAppender and add a deprecated subclass named IndexWriter for back-compatibility. Would that work? Is it worth it?
