+1 to all that Jan; your response was very thoughtful.

Except "Perhaps just keep Jetty version in CHANGES".    Why?  Since the WAR
option went away, we now think of Jetty as a component of Solr instead of
something we deploy to, at least in communication to our users.  If an
advanced user wants to mess with Jetty configuration, I'm sure he/she will
figure it out.
