+1 for a notice to the dev list and users too. My point is about notice so
that others might potentially volunteer or convey to us that the format is more
useful than we are aware of. Ultimately we should be able to remove what we
don't want to maintain, however. I was very sincere when I volunteered to port
FST50, so thank you for stepping up!
The Solr ref guide
{{solr/solr-ref-guide/src/field-type-definitions-and-properties.adoc:112}}
already has a good notice on back-compat for these formats. The
tagger-handler.adoc is probably the only spot that advices setting this, so
perhaps it should also have a notice.

> The postings API allows to store metadata about a term either in a long[] or
> in a byte[]. This is unnecessary as all information could be encoded in the
> byte[], which is what most codecs do in practice.
