Mr.Rochkind pointed out the exact requirement I had in mind i.e. "filter query from external list of Solr unique IDs". On the flip side, even filter queries can be dicey for me as I could very easily blow past the 1024 bytes URL GET limit as my original queries itself are very long..just adding 100 or 200 IDs to exclude could cause troubles. This is the exactly why I am trying to find a configuration option as opposed to writing filter queries
Thank you all for actively helping me out.
