Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-8589:
------------------------------------
I've discovered that the CREATEALIAS action does not validate whether the
target collections actually exist.
I can understand a need to create an alias before the collection exists ...
what I propose is that the action should normally validate, but have an option
to toggle the validation. Because of the potential for a backward
compatibility break with existing user code, changing the default behavior
would need to happen in 6.0.

> Although it is possible to get a list of SolrCloud aliases vi an HTTP API, it
> is not available as a typical query response, I believe it is only available
> via the http API for zookeeper.
> The results from the LIST action in the Collections API is well-situated to
> handle this. The current results are contained in a "collections" node, we
> can simply add an "aliases" node if there are any aliases defined.
