When you'd want to have single core with multiple index directories (which currently is not supported by SOLR), then why can't you have a single merged index within the core. Lucene supports searching through multiple indexes but this hasn't been inherited by the SOLR by design (I mean using MultiSearcher API's for a single core with multiple index directories in it). BTW, how big your index(es) are? Total documents? total size? etc. If each core is small(MBs/ few GBs) then you could merge few of them together.
