Aaron McCurry commented on BLUR-296:
------------------------------------
I was thinking about this one, how would you feel about implementing this as a
separate call, not apart of the query method at all? I think that might be
cleaner because I could then write the API just for faceting and not piggyback
on the query method. On a related note, if we agree that's the way to go we
could try to add it to the 0.2 branch since it wouldn't break any backwards
compatibility.

> It is entirely different than anything really described in the Lucene
