Alan, Shawn,

If backporting to 3.x is hard, no worries, we don't necessarily require the
patch as we are heading to 4.x eventually. It is just much easier within
our organization to test on the existing solr 3.4 as there are a few of
internal dependencies and custom code on top of solr. Also solr upgrades on
production systems are usually pushed forward by a month or so starting the
upgrade on development systems (requires lots of testing and verifications).

Nevertheless, it is good effort to make #solr #graphite friendly, so keep
it up! :)
