Interestingly enough the next issue we hit is the `fl=750 fields` == too big, so we switched to using POST/x-url-form-encoded for REINDEXCOLLECTION which accepts the request, but then it silently fails (no logs in solr, just doesn't work). I can only assume this is because behind the scenes the daemon is using GET and hitting the same url limit (but the error is being swallowed).
Significantly increasing the max http header length in jetty resolved the issue so this feels like a bit of a bug?

We're trying to have a process where we can easily remove fields and reindex without too much coding overhead. Therefore, we were simply using the default `fl=*:*` from the first collection as the assumption was that when we try and save the document to collection2, the additional fields would just be ignored. This wasn't the case. Subsequently to work around this now we read the schema.xml for collection2 and build up a `fl` to pass to REINDEXCOLLECTION which only includes the fields in collection2's schema. Which works.
