bq. My only request is that, if you're changing how field mapping works and 
maybe removing ext.ignore.und.fl, you make sure it stays easy to say, "Tika, I 
don't care about any of your parsed metadata.

Map unknown fields to an ignored fieldtype.
uprefix=ignored_
{quote}

That seems fine.

Tangentially, I wonder how fast Tika's metadata extraction is, compared to its 
main body text extraction. If the latter doesn't dwarf the former, there might 
be value in adding a "Solr, don't even ask Tika to calculate for metadata at 
all; just have it extract the body text" flag; this could potentially speed 
things up for people that don't need the metadata. Maybe it would make sense to 
benchmark things before adding such a flag, though. I also don't have a good 
sense of how many people will want to use the metadata feature vs how many 
don't.
