Hoss Man commented on SOLR-8140:
--------------------------------


Ok, so as far as usecases go, files like this one are historically why support 
for admin-extra.html have always existed in the Solr UI (going back to 
pre-apache Solr 1.0) ...

    This collection contains all <em>active</em> products that are currently 
either available for sale, announced for future sale, or recently disconntinued 
but still listed for SEO (ie: not archived historical pricing data).  Documents 
are updated in real time as principle product data (ie: core fields and 
editorial reviews) are <a 
href="http://intranet.company.com/engineering/docs/search/product-collection/abc";>published</a>,
 additional <a

 jobs</a> re-index all products with new popularity metrics from the data 
wharehousing  4 times a day.

    This collection is available for any team that needs to fetch product data 
using id lookups, or inline basic searches into other contexts -- however any 
users with a need for deep analytics or heavy faceting should first consult 
with the primary contact about capacity planning. <em>Any application usage 
that will result in more then 100 req/sec must be approved by <a 
href="http://intranet.company.com/engineering/capacity-planning-team";>the 
capacity planning team</a>

I, personally, think there is a lot of value in supporting files like that in 
Solr.

As far as usecases for admin-extra.menu-bottom.html and 
admin-extra.menu-top.html ... my recollection is that when the "left nav" was 
introduced there were people who liked the idea of only including 
admin-extra.html on the "overview" page for a core (i think previously it was 
included at the top of every admin page?) and having an easy way for people to 
inject links into the menu.  The primary usecase i remember was for linking to 
"custom admin screens" generated from Velocity templates (ie: to create a 
custom search page with specific fields corrisponding to the usecase)

> I didn't see a clear issue tracking this, so i'm openeing one to discuss the 
> merits of the feature and track implementing if (if that's the final decision)
