And what I'm after would look like this:
[Document]<#>--- {1..*} ->[Value]
A
| {*..1}
|
[Field +store +index +vector +analyzer +directory]
A
| {1..1}
|
[FieldName]
A
| {0..*}
|
[Index]
The key points are to have Index be a first-class object and to have
field names uniquely specify field properties.
Karl, do you have specific reasons or use cases to normalize fields at
Document rather than at Index?
