   Yeah the results were disappointing from a placement diversity standpoint, 
which is a total deal-breaker.  Perhaps a bit of randomness layered onto the 
placement would help with placement diversity?  But I confess this really is 
just a draft PR; I didn't try to deeply understand why *all* replicas get 
weighted.  I was encouraged to see all tests pass, so clearly there's a test 
gap that would allow this change to go in yet be quite flawed.  I found no 
tests specific to SimplePlacementPlugin, the one we used with the change here.
   
   We're going a different direction that does not use an 
OrderedNodePlacementPlugin foundation; we will not return to this matter to fix 
it, unfortunately.
   
   RE Collection listing:  IMO it should definitely continue to be supported.  
My objection is producing java.util.Collection or Iterable or Map of basically 
any aggregate of the state of a collection (e.g. SolrCollectoin, DocCollection, 
etc.).  List collections by name, then force the caller to resolve a name to a 
state if it must.  A bit of API friction can be a good thing where we know 
there are performance issues.  I suppose we shall agree to disagree as usual 
Ilan.
