------------------------------------

bq. Unless we want to make some parameter like <abortOnFirstIndexingFailure> or 
some such. 
Yes. Yes. Yes. [Fail Early, Fail 
Often|http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2006/05/fail-early-fail-often.html] is a 
common system design style. Meaning, if I have a data quality problem kick me 
in the head about it. For example, my online store should keep yesterday's 
product lineup rather than load a Halloween costume with no categories:
{code:xml}
<field ... required="true" .../>
{code}
is there for a reason.

> Has anyone run into the problem of handling bad documents / failures mid 
> batch.  Ie:
> <add>
>   <doc>
>     <field name="id">1</field>
>   </doc>
>   <doc>
>     <field name="id">2</field>
>     <field name="myDateField">I_AM_A_BAD_DATE</field>
>   </doc>
>   <doc>
>     <field name="id">3</field>
>   </doc>
> </add>
> Right now solr adds the first doc and then aborts.  It would seem like it 
> should either fail the entire batch or log a message/return a code and then 
> continue on to add doc 3.  Option 1 would seem to be much harder to 
> accomplish and possibly require more memory while Option 2 would require more 
> information to come back from the API.  I'm about to dig into this but I 
> thought I'd ask to see if anyone had any suggestions, thoughts or comments.
