David Smiley commented on SOLR-3317:
------------------------------------
Yeah, sounds good. If you feel so inclined you can add more tooltip help.
The presence of 'qt' on this page bothers me just a little. The "request
handler" will usually be specified as part of the URL, not a named qt
parameter. But the labels for each of these things is done by a url parameter,
not a spelled out version of what goes in that box (unlike the old admin form).
So... not sure if anything could be done. What do you think of labeling it
"Request-Handler (or qt)" ?

> The query form in the admin UI could use an improvement regarding how the
> request handler is chosen; presently all there is is a text input for 'qt'.
> The first choice to make in the form above the query should really be the
> request handler since it actually handles the request before any other
> parameters do anything. I think it'd be nice if it was filled with "/select"
> by default to make it very clear what's there, although I realize most of
> this query form seems to prefer blank values as defaults. When the form
> creates the URL to submit to Solr for the search, it needs to do something
> different depending on wether this value starts with a '/'. If it does, this
> goes where "/select" goes in the URL normally (i.e. it's the tail end of the
> path after the core). If it doesn't then it goes into the 'qt' URL parameter.
> I did something similar to the old 3x UI in SOLR-3161 that got committed to
> 3.6.
