Hoss Man created SOLR-6478:
------------------------------

             Summary: need docs / tests of the "rules" as far as collection 
names go
                 Key: SOLR-6478
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6478
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Hoss Man


historically, the rules for "core" names have been vague but implicitly defined 
based on the rule that it had to be a valid directory path name - but i don't 
know that we've ever documented anywhere what the rules are for a "collection" 
name when dealing with the Collections API.

I haven't had a chance to try this, but i suspect that using the Collections 
API you can create any collection name you want, and the zk/clusterstate.json 
data will all be fine, and you'll then be able to request anything you want 
from that collection as long as you properly URL escape it in your request URLs 
... but we should have a test that tries to do this, and document any actual 
limitations that pop up and/or fix those limitations so we really can have 
arbitrary collection names.
