> SOLR-13262 changed the behavior of most collection admin commands so that 
> they always resolve aliases by default. In most cases this is desireable 
> behavior but it also prevents executing commands on the collections that have 
> the same name as an existing alias (which usually points to a different 
> collection).
> This behavior also breaks the REINDEXCOLLECTION command with 
> {{removeSource=true,}} which can also lead to data loss.
> This issue can be resolved by adding either an opt-in or opt-out flag to the 
> collection admin commands that specifies whether the command should attempt 
> resolving the provided name as an alias first. From the point of view of ease 
> of use this could be an opt-out option, from the point of view of data safety 
> this could be an opt-in option.
