election done since other nodes are not currently participating for that slice.

I don't get what you are saying here.  The "trick" with transient cores with 
SolrCloud will be that SolrCloud needn't know about the loaded status.  Maybe 
there will be an exception but it'll be a secret inside the node (other 
nodes/replicas won't know).  The core is _present_, and thus it's leader status 
is whatever it is to SolrCloud.  It might be awoken to participate in 
leadership elections (I hope not) but if so I'll look to fix that so an 
unloaded core can stay that way during this.  If there is data to sync then the 
core will be awoken to do so (/update and /replication and all request handlers 
require the core be loaded).

> The whole lazy-load core thing was implemented with non-SolrCloud use-cases 
> in mind. There are several user-list threads that ask about using lazy cores 
> with SolrCloud, especially in multi-tenant use-cases.
> This is a marker JIRA to investigate what it would take to make lazy-load 
> cores play nice with SolrCloud. It's especially interesting how this all 
> works with shards, replicas, leader election, recovery, etc.
> NOTE: This is pretty much totally unexplored territory. It may be that a few 
> trivial modifications are all that's needed. OTOH, It may be that we'd have 
> to rip apart SolrCloud to handle this case. Until someone dives into the 
> code, we don't know.
