> Index replication could optionally delete files that it knows will not be needed _first_.  This would reduce disk capacity requirements of Solr, and it would reduce some disk fragmentation when space get tight.
> Solr (IndexFetcher) already grabs the remote file list, and it could see which files it has locally, then delete the others.  Today it asks Lucene to {{deleteUnusedFiles}} at the end.  This new mode would probably only be useful if there is no SolrIndexSearcher open, since it would prevent the removal of files.
> The motivating scenario is a SolrCloud replica that is going into full recovery.  It ought to not be fielding searches.  The code changes would not depend on SolrCloud though.
> This option would have some danger the user should be aware of.  If the replication fails, leaving the local files incomplete/corrupt, the only recourse is to try full replication again.  You can't just give up and field queries.
