    Resolution: Won't Fix

With Solr Cloud, this feature is not needed.

> Our particular need for this is as follows.  We operate in a sharded 
> environment with one core per server.  Each shard also acts as a collator.  
> We want to use a hardware load balancer to choose which shard will do the 
> collation for each query.  But in order to do that, each server's single core 
> would have to carry the same name so that it could be accessed by the same 
> url across servers.  However we name the cores by their shard number 
> (query0,query1,...) because it parallels with the way we name our 
> indexing/master cores (index0, index1,...).  This naming convention also 
> gives us the flexibility of moving to a multicore environment in the future 
> without having to rename the cores, although admittedly that would complicate 
> load balancing.  
> In a system with a large number of shards and the anticipation of adding more 
> going forward, setting a defaultCoreName attribute in each solr.xml file 
> becomes inconvenient, especially since there is no Solr admin API for setting 
> defaultCoreName.  It would have to be done by hand or with some automated 
> tool we would write in house.  Even if there were an API, logically it seems 
> unnecessary to have to declare the only core to be the default. 
> Fortunately this behavior can be implemented with the following simple patch:
> {code}
