The guard only rejected CaseInsensitive when a non-keyword/path Type was set explicitly. With no Type, isCasedType treated the field as cased, so CaseInsensitive on an inferred numeric/bool/datetime field passed validation but produced no _lowercase sibling, and the query would silently match nothing. Validate now falls back to the inferred Go type.
resolveField marked every anonymous field embedded, so walkFields (mapping, field index, validate) and fillStruct (deserializer) flattened a json-tagged embedded struct, while conversions.To/encoding/json on the write path nests it under the tag, mapping and deserializing it at the wrong path. An anonymous field is now embedded only without a json tag name, matching encoding/json; fillStruct also recurses into a value nested struct. No current type has a tagged embedded struct, so runtime behavior is unchanged; this hardens the reflection walker.
CaseInsensitive routes queries to a <field>_lowercase sibling that is only generated for keyword/path fields, so marking any other type CaseInsensitive would silently match nothing. Validate now rejects it up front.
Single-term `content:` built an unanalyzed term query, so once this branch dropped the blanket query-value lowercasing, `content:Foo` missed on OpenSearch (bleve was unaffected, its query analyzes). Fielded full-text queries now use a match query. OpenSearch `Content` also gets a porter stemming analyzer (it used the default standard analyzer and never stemmed), so full-text search matches bleve on both case and stemming.
Keyword and path fields always index their case-preserved base and, when CaseInsensitive is set, an additional <field>_lowercase sibling used only for matching. The KQL lowering marks a restriction case-insensitive; each backend searches the sibling and lowercases the query value the same way the sibling is precomputed at index time (Go strings.ToLower on both sides, so non-ASCII stays consistent).
Search always returns the case-preserved base, so the sibling never has to be read back. In bleve it is indexed but not stored, kept out of _all, and without doc values. In OpenSearch it deliberately stays in _source: excluding it would make every update-by-query script rebuild all siblings from the document via painless toLowerCase, which lowercases differently than Go and would drift from the query side. Keeping it in _source avoids that, and a lowercased copy of a name or path is negligible disk in a cluster.
The OpenSearch move script keeps the base and its sibling in sync by swapping the moved prefix in Path_lowercase and setting Name_lowercase from Go-lowercased params, so case-insensitive search still finds a file after it moves (previously the sibling went stale). bleve re-indexes the whole document on move/delete/restore, so its siblings stay fresh for free.
This also repairs OpenSearch path search (the query value was no longer folded to lowercase, so path:<Foo> returned nothing) and makes bleve path queries match a folder and its descendants like OpenSearch's path_hierarchy. The Path base stays case-preserved so the move/delete descendant update (an exact TermQuery on Path) matches mixed-case folders.
Add a TypeGeopoint field type. The libregraph Location facet is kept as an
object (retrieval / numeric queries) and a sibling <name>_geopoint field
carries the {lat,lon} form for geo-distance / bbox / polygon queries,
uniform across bleve and OpenSearch via the shared mapping. PrepareForIndex
splices the sibling in at write time.
Build the bleve and OpenSearch index mappings from the Go struct via
reflection (json tags + per-field overrides) instead of hand-rolled
mappings and hit deserializers. New mapping package: BleveBuildMapping,
OpenSearchBuildMapping, Deserialize[T], PrepareForIndex; field decoding is
fail-soft. Mtime is typed as a date so mtime ranges are chronological on
both backends. Route CS3 facet parsing through mapping.DeserializeStringMap.
The any-valued (bleve hit) and string-valued (CS3 metadata) deserializers
share one generic fillStruct walker with a per-value setLeaf callback.
