Perhaps we should return to the design level a bit instead of me reading code
and maybe making mistakes and trying to infer intent.
Assume we have this:
<fieldType name="xy" class="solr.PointType" dimension="2"
subFieldType="double"/>
<field name="home" type="xy" indexed="true" stored="true"/>
What are the exact field names that are indexed?

Regarding the fieldType subFieldType attribute -- a question popped into my
mind. How do we handle poly fields where each type is different? I.e., where
subFieldType="double,tint" or whatever...

> In a few special cases, it makes sense for a single "field" (the concept) to
> be indexed as a set of Fields (lucene Field). Consider SOLR-773. The
> concept "point" may be best indexed in a variety of ways:
> * geohash (sincle lucene field)
> * lat field, lon field (two double fields)
> * cartesian tiers (a series of fields with tokens to say if it exists within
> that region)
