We have the same problem in multiple places, e.g.: * org.hibernate.search.mapper.pojo.search.definition.binding.ProjectionBindingContext * org.hibernate.search.mapper.pojo.bridge.binding.BindingContext * org.hibernate.search.engine.search.predicate.definition.PredicateDefinitionContext We should probably deprecate the variants that don’t have a “type” parameter, since people will most likely always need a cast.
