Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-705:
-----------------------------------

bq. What about putting the docid->shard mapping elsewhere in the response 
rather than actually on the document?

I've never been sure what the right answer is here.  Putting it in a different 
place sometimes seems cleaner, but sometimes seems like it just makes responses 
harder to read, and forces users to do their own id based correlation.

I've also thought about a "meta" part to a document that contains other 
information specific to the document besides stored fields.

> SOLR-303 queries with &shards parameters set need to return the dociD->shard 
> mapping in the response. Without it, updating/deleting documents when the # 
> of shards is variable is hard. We currently set this with a special 
> requestHandler that filters /update and inserts the shard as a field in the 
> index but it would be better if the shard location came back in the query 
> response outside of the index.
