   I will throw in a real usecase that gives us a bit of headache: completion 
fields. All the existing codecs load them on heap, and we want to make a switch 
to load them off heap in certain situations. We could do so with a new codec, 
but that would only affect newly indexed data, and that is somehow weird as in 
this specific case it's only a matter of how data gets loaded, nothing to do 
with how it gets stored. Looks like loading off heap for existing data would 
only be possible via horrible hacks, if at all?
