In https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HSEARCH-1401 , we introduced basic support for free-form entities entities (dynamic-Map ORM entities, Protobuf buffers in Infinispan).
We could go one step further and allow users to declare a particular property as "free-form", assigning it a type defined separately. Then it would be possible to navigate sub-properties and map them using programmatic mapping.
The main use case would be to index part of a property whose value is JSON-formatted.
See what was done on Hibernate Validator in particular.
