This is what I want, yes. But I begin to understand that this is not possible
without storing additional meta-data as neither the index nor the documents
preserve the type info (correct me if I'm wrong). On the other hand, since once
a field (name) has been typified (by auto-detection or a configuration file),
in my case the field will maintain its type across documents and can thus
be an index property. And since auto-detection is not very robust, I think I'll
end needing a schema or type definition after all (field name to type mapping),
which is not difficult to implement (or use Solr, I guess).

Kind regards,
Rolf
