The use case I keep thinking about is Flue/Morphline replacing DataImportHandler. So, when I saw morphline shipped with Solr, I tried to understand whether it is a step towards it.
As it is, I am still not sure I understand why those jars are shipped with Solr, if it is not actually integrating into Solr. Regards, Alex.
