Thanks. Sort of what I was thinking of was the fact that document X, field N, was built via tokenizer/analyzer N. If I need to search an index of document Xs, then I should be using tokenizer/analyzer N without having to "know" that it was built that way.

There has been a long-running thread on the java-dev list about how to allow application-specific "extra stuff" to be placed in the index, at multiple levels of granularity. Some of this conversation is captured on the Wiki at: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/FlexibleIndexing Maybe you could modify the above page to include your requirements?
