I like the idea of adding schema support for Solr's output, but I'm
afraid most of my XML experience is with non-validated stuff.

Can we use a full name like that w/o clients trying to hit the real
lucene.apache.org website looking for the schema?

I assume the xsd would go under webapp/resources somewhere?

Yeah.  This is done fairly routinely: you can see, for example, how
Tomcat packages the web.xml DTD/XSD files alongside the servlet-api.
Every web.xml file has the full DTD/XSD URL for the web-app element,
but 99.9% of the time the lookup is local, no network connection
needed.

Sure, it's as good a place as any.  I suggest NOT putting it under
WEB-INF, so that developers can easily see the actual raw XSD file in
their browser while developing / testing.
