That is the hard part regardless of whether we use JMX or bare-metal
HTTP+XML. What operations are exposed for admin?

Well, for long-hanging fruit (autumn Virginia apples):

  * In a read-only fashion, everything from stats.jsp and registry.jsp

This could already be done by making a request handler do what those  
JSP pages do - piece of cake.  But I can see Solr also providing more  
interactive type of administration in the future, such as providing  
analysis capabilities, spell checking, and (*gasp*) dynamic  
configuration of the schema and configuration even.
