1. Yes, and 2. Yes. :) Solr's adding more NoSQL-like features for 4.0, but in the meantime, you're better off storing documents with a complex schema in a document store and using Solr for findability. Basically the schema for a document in Solr/Lucene is flat (although it can contain arbitrarily-named fields), so your document will require some sort of transformation for indexing.
