Hoss Man commented on SOLR-3346:
--------------------------------

bq. Credit: Hoss's idea

to be clear, i did not suggest that we should eliminate qt support from 
SolrDispatchFilter.

what i said in SOLR-3161 was...

{quote}
change the example solrocnfig to use handleSelect="false"
 ...
Bonus points: someone can write a DispatchingRequestHandler that can optionally 
be configured with some name (such as "/select") and does nothing put look for 
a "qt" param and forward to the handler with that name – but it can have 
configuration options indicating which names are permitted (and any other names 
would be rejected)
{quote}

my entire point was that we should leave in support for 'handleSelect="true"' 
exactly as it is for the multitudes of existing users who are happy using "qt" 
w/o any security concerns, but that we could _also_ offer an optional 
DispatchingRequestHandler for people who want param based dispatching but want 
to limit it to only certain handlers

> Instead of 'qt' being handled by the SolrDispatchFilter (a Servlet Filter), 
> it would be better implemented as a request handler, with a suggested name of 
> DispatchingRequestHandler.  This is better because:
> * it keeps the servlet filter more focused / simplified (albeit just a little)
> * it simplifies solrconfig.xml by removing/deprecating handleSelect="true".  
> 'qt' is less magic, it works more explicitly.
> * if you don't want to use 'qt' dispatch, simply don't use 
> DispatchingRequestHandler
> * DispatchingRequestHandler would get used by EmbeddedSolrServer but 
> SolrDispatchFilter is not.
