Description

Suppose to delete docs in a spec shard within a collection,using this the command
[1]http://localhost:8082/solr/tv_201402/update?&stream.body=<delete><query>BEGINTIME:["2014-03-01 00:00:00" TO *]</query></delete>&shards=tv_201402&commit=true.
As a result, all the docs over the collection which BEGINTIME is larger than 2014-03-01 00:00:00 were deleted.

After I check the source code :DistributedUpdateProcessor.doDeleteByQuery.It shows that the route and shard.keys can make work, which indeed works after I have try with the cmd:
[2]http://10.1.22.1:8082/solr/tv_201402/update?stream.body=<delete><query>BEGINTIME:["2014-03-01 00:00:00" TO "2014-03-02 00:00:00"]</query></delete>&route=tv_201402&commit=true

As the first request[1],I use the shards parameter hoping to delete docs only in the tv_201402, while the second request[1],it change to route parameter .

The purpose that I file the JIRA is that we should make it to be consist that the shards parameter should also can make request no distrib during updating just as some as searching.
