I really don't like the dirty solution ;-)

I could come up with a patch if many are interested in this.

What do you like be the best : patching QueryParser ,or a new QueryParser subclass ?

In fact I need this change just for the Query parser class, to be able to make queries such as kw:blah. Now my field is called "org.mycompany.mediafield.keyword". Not very easy to make queries with this field name!


It would be cool if QueryParser had some sort of field name aliasing functionality, so that kw:blah is automatically translated into org.mycompany.mediafield.keyword:blah

You could, instead, do a string substitution on the string the user enters and replace "kw:" with something else. That'd be quick and dirty and probably pretty robust too.

However, it is a good point about allowing QueryParser a way to translate field names. A patch along these lines would be well received, I think.
