Yeah, it's currently just for the update side of things. But this issue is open <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3669> and assigned to me, for one of these days. I set it for my 5.0 radar. Certainly anyone that wants to make this happen sooner than I maybe will possibly hopefully one week will delve into, go for it!
Erik p.s. [infomercial] We do have update-side scripting (JavaScript) and business rules (via Drools) capabilities in our LucidWorks Search platform* <http://www.lucidworks.com/products/lucidworks-search> with the update-side scripting running in the connector framework by design rather than on the Solr side of things to allow it to scale in a separate tier.
