Thanks a lot. But then what's the added value of Field.TermVector? Can't it be deduced from the overall Lucene index? Or is it just inefficient to deduce?

Lucene always uses a field, a query using a term without a field is impossible. See each field as a parallel inverted index; all statistics are per field, too. If you pass a query without a field name to QueryParser it will chose the default field, that’s given when creating the QueryParser.
