Daniel Collins commented on SOLR-5102:
--------------------------------------

Maybe the more important question is "what does solr.home mean and what should 
it contain?"  If using Solr Cloud, then solr.home is just solr.xml, zoo.cfg, 
and directories containing core.properties files.  That is purely "data" and 
"configuration", so I'd agree with Noble Paul, I wouldn't want that to live 
alongside JARs or "code".  I know the distinctions as a web-app are not as 
clear, but treating Solr like an application (which we do), we like to keep a 
nice distinction between code and data and I think I would object to something 
that forced it all to live in one area.

For upgrades (assuming we migrate away from web-apps at some point), again it 
would be nice to keep the "custom" stuff, i.e. solr.xml, zoo.cfg and all my 
core configuration/data away from solr "code", so I could migrate between Solr 
versions for an upgrade path more cleanly.
