Here is a big +1 for the functionality that Henri added via SOLR-215! The last patch I looked was big-ish, but didn't look too difficult.
The best way to avoid having to keep the patch up to date is to..... commit it :) Otis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Of course, now there is your very ambitious SOLR-215, which I personally haven't had the time to look at, but I commend your great writeup on it - it really helps to have that type of detailed overview when attempting to evaluate such a large patch. -Yonik
