Re: [hibernate-dev] [Search] Index embedded and id property of embedded entity
So it has been an explicit choice at some point of time.

The question is also about a consistent behaviour across all use cases. Sure,
we can add the id via the include path, but what I want to make sure that our
implementation
makes sense in all cases and we have a comprehensible solution for users.
So, I guess you are saying here, that the document id is just not a regular field.
To clarify what bugs me is, that you are basically suggesting that the id can be included
via
include path, but can never be used via the depth approach.
One option we have not discussed yet, is an additional method on @indexedEmbedded.
Something like includeEmbeddedId. Default would be false. If you set it to true, the id
is
included. It makes id inclusion orthogonal to depth and includePath.
