I could put 1-10,000 fileds in any one document, as long as they are told what type or they are dynamically matched by dynamic fields relative to what's in the schema.xml file?
It's very much like google 'big tables' or 'elastic search' that way, right? It's up to me to enforce any field names or quantities and assign field types during insert/update?

What it does not enforce is field contents when you change the schema. Since Lucene does not have field replacement, it is not practical to remove or add a field to all existing documents when you change the schema.
