> The "userfiles" feature is relatively obscure and might be subsumed by the
> "file store". I don't think an obscure feature should be auto-creating its
> "userfiles" directory. Even a popular one; not sure it makes sense. If a
> user wants to use this feature, they are welcome to create the directory.
> Solr has other optional directories, like solr-home/lib that are not
> auto-created; it's not clear to me why this one is. I've found the
> auto-creation of this dir to be annoying in two ways. One is in Solr's tests
> – there are existing Jira issues that show stack traces about this even
> though it's ignored. Secondly is as a down-stream consumer for
> running/building Solr plugins that have a Solr home dir pointing somewhere
> that suddenly has this userfiles dir popping up despite me having no plans to
> use it.
