Admin UI: Improve request handler / qt in query form
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-3317
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3317
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: web gui
            Reporter: David Smiley
            Assignee: Stefan Matheis (steffkes)
             Fix For: 4.0


The query form in the admin UI could use an improvement regarding how the 
request handler is chosen; presently all there is is a text input for 'qt'. The 
first choice to make in the form above the query should really be the request 
handler since it actually handles the request before any other parameters do 
anything.  I think it'd be nice if it was filled with "/select" by default to 
make it very clear what's there, although I realize most of this query form 
seems to prefer blank values as defaults.  When the form creates the URL to 
submit to Solr for the search, it needs to do something different depending on 
wether this value starts with a '/'.  If it does, this goes where "/select" 
goes in the URL normally (i.e. it's the tail end of the path after the core).  
If it doesn't then it goes into the 'qt' URL parameter.

I did something similar to the old 3x UI in SOLR-3161 that got committed to 3.6.
