    Description

      Team,

      If we try to create index using misplaced background configuration, MongoDB should be able to validate and report back the error. For example, if I run following command, server doesn't tells me that background is placed wrong and instead runs the indexing in foreground:

      db.runCommand({
      	createIndexes: "exampleIndex",
      	indexes: [{
      		key: {
      			a: 1,
      			b: 1,
      			"c": 1
      		},
      		name: "a_1_b_1_c_1"
      	},
      	{
      		key: {
      			a: 1,
      			b: 1,
      			c: 1,
      			"d": 1,
      			e: 1
      		},
      		name: "a_1_b_1_c_1_d_1_e_1"
      	}]
      },{ background: true })
      

      Note that the background: true is not present per index level but is defined at global level.
