patrick o'leary commented on SOLR-565:
--------------------------------------
There are 2 main differences
1) This provides optional enabling using distributed=true,
where as setting defaults requires a client sending shards="" to disable.
2) Also allows you to keep your infrastructure topology out side of application
configuration.
There is a load method which also examines the time stamp on the topology
file and reloads if a newer one exists.
Saving you from having to restart the host to change your back end shards.

> managing each client.
