The example that comes with Solr is meant to be a starting

but it is still just an example application.
By the time people want to do expert-level activities with
Solr (multi-index falls into that category), they should be
able to configure their own servlet container, whether it be
jetty plus, tomcat, resin, etc.
Does this means Solr 1.2 supports MultiSearcher?
No, I'm purely talking about housing two different indices on the
same machine with Solr. They may be related, they may not be.
Currently (1.2), the options are:
1. multiple processes/servlet containers/jvms
2. multiple instances of solr webapps within a single container/
process/jvm
In the future, (1.3 or farther down the line), another option will be:
3. multiple indices within a single solr webapp, added/removed on the
fly.
