I'm very skeptical of the performance of such a solution.

If I understand the significance of this, this means more or less real-time 
Solr replication would be possible, eliminating the need for the Master/Slave 
setup, shapshots, pull scripts, etc. Ja?

It might be OK for very small incremental changes, but I think you
would still need to designate one server a master to coordinate
updates.  Larger updates would become network bound, including when it
wasn't necessary (writing out every change to a segment that is going
to be merged anyway).

Maybe someone can do something interesting with it, but I don't think
it can replace our current replication strategy (at first glance).
