Why not do this in two steps. Use the "free form properties" now for the first 
implementation. Later, after integration of Hibernate Spatial in Hibernate 
Core, you could bring in explicit spatial types (Coordinates, Points or 
others). In that way we can make sure that the use of spatial types and 
concepts are at least consistent between HSearch and HSpatial.

Btw, I was thinking of adding to geolatte-geom (my JTS alternative) explicit 
classes for geographic geometries.
