I am not confusing them :)
In Hibernate Search, a field comes from a property (of an entity) and  
a bridge.
If you have a field name, you can in most cases extract the right  
bridge (as we know the list of targeted entities for a given query).

PS: that means we might have to ask for the targeted entities when  
building the query.
