Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-8621:
--------------------------------------

IIUC, the motivation here is to permit any number of merge policies to be 
configured with the goal of supporting wrapping of merge policies. Okay, but 
what tells Solr which MP is the outer/default MP?

> solrconfig.xml: deprecate/replace <mergePolicy> with <mergePolicyFactory>
