Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-5017:
--------------------------------------

Some clarification is needed:

1. Is this simply telling SolrCloud to use a different field for the key to be 
sharded? With no additional semantics?

2. Or, is this saying that all documents with a particular value in that field 
will be guaranteed to be in the same shard (e.g., so that grouping works 
properly)?

I'm hoping it is the latter.

Thanks.
