----------------------------------------------------------------
I think that is a good start. The change wouldn't be 100% immediate on return
of the call, but designing the client/app to expect this could be ok. If there
was a STATUS call on the Cores API that could detail the node's running alias,
one could write an external script to "check" that the change made it
everywhere.
This lead me to wondering (again without understanding implications and design
goals) would it be best to have the Overseer push the change to all nodes (and
write to ZK) vs relying only on the change in ZK, which has delays.

> We should bring back the old aliasing feature, but for SolrCloud and with the
> ability to alias one collection to many.
> The old alias feature was of more limited use and had some problems, so we
> dropped it, but I think we can do this in a more useful way with SolrCloud,
> and at a level were it's not invasive to the CoreContainer.
> Initially, the search side will allowing mapping a single alias to multiple
> collections, but the index side will only support mapping a single alias to a
> single collection.
