Noble Paul commented on SOLR-6633:
----------------------------------

I hope you are all clear about the functionality/usecase. If the 
API/configuration needs change please suggest .

bq.I'm not clear on this either... my best guess is that it is like a 
copyField. And all values (but not keys) are copied into this field?

It is like a copyFIeld but without a src field. 

bq.I'm not quite clear on "mapUniqueKeyOnly" either... (what the "Only" refers 
to).

All the values are extracted and dumped into a field. But it ensures that a 
uniqueKey is created. They don't need to use this attribute at all . 
f=text:/**&f=uniqueKeyField:/unique-field-name should do the trick.  Then , if 
the json does not have a value for uniqueKey it fails. 

bq.Oh, and when we have magic field names, the convention in Solr has been an 
underscore on both sides

{{_src}} is not a magic field . It is explicitly added to the schema and it is 
explicitly specified here as well


> let /update/json/docs store the source json as well

> it is a common requirement to store the entire JSON as a field in Solr. 
> we can have a extra param srcField=field_name to specify the field name
> the /update/json/docs is only useful when all the json fields are predefined 
> or in schemaless mode.
> The better option would be to store the content in a store only field and 
> index the data in another field in other modes
> the relevant section in solrconfig.xml
> {code:xml}
>  <initParams path="/update/json/docs">
>     <lst name="defaults">

> one field-->
>       <str name="srcField">_src</str>
>       <!--This means a the uniqueKeyField will be extracted from the fields 
> and
>        all fields go into the 'df' field. In this config df is already
