David Smiley commented on SOLR-6472:
------------------------------------

Perhaps if route.field is set, _then_ the lack of a trailing '\!' is incorrect? 
 If so, then CloudSolrClient could auto-add the '!' in this circumstance.

> Don't require an '!' character at the end of a _route_ (shard.keys) value

> A routing key can be specified in the "_route_" parameter which is then 
> hashed and the shard corresponding to the key is selected for 
> querying/indexing. But we require users to specify an exclamation mark at the 
> end to get the right routing otherwise it fails silently or gives the wrong 
> hash. This also applies to the split.key param used in shard splitting.
> This is really annoying because you can forget to add the '!' character at 
> the end and you wouldn't even know why the request was routed incorrectly.
> We should make the '!' character optional and support keys both with and 
> without it.
