> While working with Solr, schema and configuration changes without 
> understanding can result in severe node failures, and much effort and time 
> get consumed to fix such situations.
> Few such problematic situations can be:
> * Too many fields in the schema
> * Too many commits: too short auto commit
> * Spellchecker, suggester issues. Build suggester index on startup or on 
> every commit causes memory pressure and latency issues
> -- Schema mess-ups
> * Text field commented out and Solr refuses to reload core
> * Rename field type for unique key or version field
> * Single-valued to multivalued and vice versa
> * Switching between docvalues on/off
> * Changing text to string type because user wanted to facet on a text field
> The intention is to add a layer above Schema and Config API to have some 
> checks and let the end user know the ramifications of the changes he/she 
> intends to do.
