Steve Rowe commented on SOLR-3251:
----------------------------------

Here's a rough outline of what I'd like to do:

# Add schema field & fieldtype details REST API methods getFields, getField, 
getFieldtypes, and getFieldtype.  (A client should be able to find out the 
current set of fields/fieldtypes before adding a new one.)
# Change Solr schema serialization from XML to JSON, and provide an XML->JSON 
conversion tool.
# Add internal addField method:
** Modify in-memory schema, based on Yonik's patch
** Persist/reload schema:
*** In standalone mode (and on node handling addField request in SolrCloud 
mode), after creating new schema, persist (locally or to ZK), then switch to 
new schema.
*** In SolrCloud mode, set watches on the schema in ZK; when triggered, 
read/parse schema from ZK, and reload changed parts only.  In-flight requests 
will not see schema changes.
# Implement REST API addField method; add Restlet dependency.

I'm proposing to keep the schema in ZK as a znode, as it is now, rather than 
having one znode per section or per item.
