Hi Otis,

I merely followed on the gmail's suggestion to include other people into the
recipients list, Yonik was the first one :) I won't do it next time.

Thanks for a rapid reply. The reason for doing this query routing is that we
abstract the distributed SOLR from the client code for security reasons
(that is, we don't want to expose the entire shard farm to the world, but
only the frontend SOLR) and for better decoupling.

Is it possible to implement a plugin to SOLR that would map queries to
shards?

We have other choices too, they'll take quite some time, that's why I
decided to quickly ask, if I was missing something from the SOLR main
components design and configuration.

Dmitry
