Peter Sturge commented on SOLR-3421:
------------------------------------

It's also worth noting that one of the advantages of this approach is that is 
allows for partial results to be returned (with error details in the response) 
if one or more shards are unavailable, but others are ok. An optional flag to 
allow this (or not) can switch this feature on or off.

> The distributed search feature allows one to configure the list of shards the 
> SearchHandler should query and aggregate results from using the "shards" 
> parameter. Unfortunately, there is no way to configure any sort of 
> authentication between shards and a distributed search-enabled SearchHandler. 
> It'd be good to be able to specify an authentication type, auth credentials, 
> and transport security to allow installations that don't have the benefit of 
> being protected by a firewall some measure of security.
