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

I don't think I have a full handle on this yet.

I'm still a little confused because we call this setting the Solr server 
startup directory and "setting the working directory" but then the env variable 
is called the Solr config directory and when you set it, a copy of some config 
files is actually made. 

I think it will be a little confusing to users to understand what this option 
is, what it does, and why it would be used.

We should look at the name and some documentation. Given we don't have anything 
setup to test these scripts really (we really should get Jenkins jobs), it's 
especially important we are very clear to other devs what we are trying to 
support and how and why it works as part of the script / code if we want to see 
the feature get properly supported and not disappear or break easily.
