Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with a full-text search across jdt.core for "new index", "new Indexer", and "544898", then review each matching comment or disabled code reference in context. Done means the obsolete remains of the removed "new" indexer are removed without affecting current indexing behavior; the issue does not name a specific test to run.
