This is just an idea for rebalancing I suppose - an index splitter lets you 
split up an index - there is a multi pass splitter in contrib. So if you wanted 
to move a few documents around (to rebalance after a couple servers go down 
perhaps), you might split out another index (just the docs you want to move), 
and then ship off that already analyzed and indexed bunch of documents to other 
servers.
