+1 to "doing it the modern way". IMO ExtractingRequestHandler was never 
intended to be used in production; we've been suggesting for _years_ that it be 
used for PoC but not in prod and users should "do something outside Solr". This 
seems like a chance to make it something that could be friendlier to production 
usage.

At a quick glance, tika-server will be on-prem, we should make that plain in 
the docs...

One other thing, and this isn't specific to Tika so [~ichattopadhyaya] and 
[~noble.paul] pay attention too ;). Currently, trunk is maintaining two sets of 
dependency files, one for gradle and one for ant. Moving Tika to a package (and 
this I assume holds true for other packages) will remove dependencies and both 
should be changed until we go to gradle-only.

Ant still uses lucene/ivy-versions.properties.
Gradle uses versions.props. When you change versions, you often have to execute 
"./gradlew --write-locks", see "gradlew helpAnt".

>          Issue Type: Improvement

>             Fix For: 8.7

>
> Solr's primary responsibility should be to focus on search and scalability. 
> Having to deal with the problems (CVEs) of Velocity, Tika etc. can slow us 
> down. I propose that we deprecate it going forward.
> Tika can be run outside Solr. Going forward, if someone wants to use these, 
> it should be possible to bring them into third party packages and installed 
> via package manager.
> Plan is to just to throw warnings in logs and add deprecation notes in 
> reference guide for now. Removal can be done in 9.0.
