Description
Today we have a analyzing suggester that is bound to a single key. Yet, if you want to have a totally different surface form compared to the key used to find the suggestion you either have to copy the code or play some super ugly analyzer tricks. For example I want to suggest "Barbar Streisand" if somebody types "strei" in that case the surface form is totally different from the analyzed form.
Even one step further I want to embed some meta-data in the suggested key like a user id or some type my surface form could look like "Barbar Streisand|15". Ideally I want to encode this as binary and that might not be a valid UTF-8 byte sequence.
I'm actually doing this in production and my only option was to copy the analyzing suggester and some of it's related classes.
