David Smiley updated SOLR-17288:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
I'd like to have the preferredLeader replica property be assigned automatically 
by Solr (if configured to).  It would be applied when replicas are created for 
a new shard, like collection creation and restoring a collection from a backup. 
 Shard split is maybe different.

I propose that a 
[ReplicaPlacement|https://github.com/apache/solr/blob/branch_9_6/solr/core/src/java/org/apache/solr/cluster/placement/ReplicaPlacement.java#L35]
 decision, computed by a PlacementPlugin, include a "preferredLeader" boolean.  
Alternatively, we could alter PlacementPlugin.computePlacements method contract 
to further state that the returned order is significant -- that replicas are 
created in iteration order.  Furthermore, the consumer (in Assign) would mark 
the first replica as preferredLeader.

A default algorithm could simply choose a preferredLeader at random.
