This looks pretty much what i need yes, the:

DetachedCriteria child =
criteria.GetCriteriaByPath(fullQualifier);
            if (child != null)
            {
                // there is already a criteria to the path
                // -> use the criteria alias
                fullQualifierAlias = child.Alias;
            }

Seem promising. I'll be looking into this today/tomorrow when i've got
some time to work on this again!

Thanks for the help, ill post here if it turned to be the answer :)
