Thats good to know. On http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SchemaXml it also states about dynamicFields that "you can create field rules that Solr will use to understand what datatype should be used whenever it is given a field name that is not explicitly defined, but matches a prefix or suffix used in a dynamicField. "
