I created one now: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15875 In the
comment, I suggest this probably should be a SIP, and that there are
possibly conflicting/redundant ideas (yet may be complementary?) in
SOLR-14049.  So, discussion is definitely necessary.  That's really the
point of a SIP anyway -- forcing a discussion on major decisions.
