There certainly could be some intermediate storage of documents prior
to indexing, but as far as the Lucene index goes it is inherently a
one-way process. Solr could facilitate this pretty easily... with an
update processor that wrote the documents coming in to some other
storage (one option: simple Solr XML files on the filesystem). So
hope is not lost.

That is a shame. I have much experience with Autonomy IDOL and the
possibility of quickly reindexing the content without making a call
to the
original source is great. Just Export, update the config, and import
(=reindex) to see if, for instance the performance is better or just
to
transport the information to an other server.
This can only be done of course when there are no fields added etc.

Thank you for your response. Yes, i need to make the setup handy to
query &
repost to solr - till this new feature is included in SOLR.
It's only tractable to do this if the original field values are
stored,
which is quite prohibitive in many cases. So I don't think this is a
feature that you'll see in Solr any time soon.
