In retrospect I proposed two things here that should be separated. (1) NamedList becoming abstract and having some factory methods to make the type being constructed super explicit instead of accidental. Basically, make it clear if the keys may repeat by putting that into the name of the factory method. (2) Breaking some Solr API JSON responses due to a previously poor choice of NamedList type (should use SimpleOrderedMap). This should be kept very distinct from #1. We've certainly fixed our APIs on this matter before.
