Oh, and of course there's the whole managed schema capabilities where
you use API end points to modify the schema file and a similar for
some parts of solrconfig.xml. That said, though, for any kind of
serious installation I'd still be pulling the modified configs off of
ZK and putting them in source code control. If you're not going to
create a UI to manipulate the schema, I find just using the scripts or
zkcli about as fast.

Best,
Erick
