This could be achieved purely client-side if all you're talking about
is a stored field (not indexed/searchable). The client-side could
encrypt and encode the encrypted bits as text that Solr/Lucene can
store. Then decrypt client-side.

adopting Solr to replace other legacy systems. Would it require a
custom-written filter to encrypt during indexing and decrypt at
query time,
or is there something I'm unaware of already available to do this?
