This is a common point of confusion stemming from the fact that there is 
another field named LatLonType. If LatLonType was the only field that accepted 
a latitude,longitude pair then there would be no confusion but the GeoHashField 
accepts this too.  "geohash" is a name reflecting its internal workings. You 
don't need to know a thing about geohashes.

BTW I think LWE 1.8 is Solr 1.4 based, and I highly doubt my plugin, which 
should work in Solr 3x, would work in Solr 1.4. Consider upgrading to LWE 2.0 
or using plain Solr.
