I was wondering if 7.2.1 solrj had native support for the
security/authentication endpoint? I couldn't find anything in the docs
about it, but maybe someone has some experience with it?
Note: This is about adding/deleting users on a solr instance using solrj,
not authenticating (that is well documented).
At first I was looking for how to use authentication with SolrJ. I came
up with this:

Looks like this is not available when using the sugar objects like
SolrQuery. To use authentication, it seems you have to create the
request objects yourself.

Then I noticed you were talking about the actual security endpoint --
adding users.
I have been looking over the objects available in SolrJ, and I do not
see anything useful. It looks like you might need a new request object
class, implemented similar to DirectXMLRequest, but using JSON and not
XML. It might be possible to make it an implicitly defined class rather
than creating a whole class file.
A proper sugar class for handling the security endpoint should be
created. I would do it, but I'm not sure how.
Thanks,
