Perhaps something based on SQL/JPA-QL? Or are you thinking DSL specific to Lucene - which could be used by any/all of {Lucene, Hibernate Search, Infinispan}? In which case the DSL should ideally be a Lucene project.</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><blockquote type="cite"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><div>Is it too round-about / tricky / yucky if we the user is to provide the specific class of the query?
