I looked at PerFieldAnalyzerWrapper. Seems perfect for what I want. Thanks.
Some day, I'd be interested to understand the "deeper question".

The new PerFieldAnalyzerWrapper (in v. 1.3) allows you to specify different analyzers, as its name says, per field. You simply specify which analyzer to use as a default and then any special ones for individual fields. As for using the same analyzer for querying as for indexing - that is a deeper question that I've yet to agree with. There are some interesting reasons why you may want a different one - although they must "cooperate" in some fashion.
