> When I did the first big refactor on update handler, I was trying to never
> close the index writer - I had to give in on this goal due to the replication
> handler - it requires rebooting the indexwriter. At the time, I settled for
> allowing a little race that didn't show up as an issue in tests - this IW
> reboot was always a bit of a hack in the past anyhow.
> Now that the dust has settled, we should make this air tight though. I'd like
> to make opening a new indexwriter a full class citizen rather than a hacky
> method only used minimally for replication to reboot things. It should be a
> solid API that is valid for any uses down the road.
> For some IW config changes, we may want to do it in 'some' cases on reload.
> To do this, we have to start ref counting iw use - so that we only actually
> open a new one and close the old one when it's not in use at all.
