> 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.
