No it was one of Emmanuel's experiments, so I'd like his +1 as well ;-)

I don't dislike the concept, maybe this is something that could be
reincarnated as an OGM dialect?

Or if it was meant to be more Lucene-API centric, maybe it could
become a separate module in Search (separate than
hibernate-search-engine, so at the same level of hibernate-search-orm)
