I think this limitation stems from element indexes in ML. Would be incredibly useful to specify a path when creating range indexes etc instead of just the element name. Currently I have to duplicate a lot of elements in a separate meta namespace to avoid this problem (which in ML consultant speak is called enrichment!).
Don't suppose there's any plans to support this in the future?

I'm interested in this as well. It feels as though <search:local-name>name</search:local-name> really should be allowed to take an xpath expression. This can't be impossible, from an implementation point of view, since the search-path element can take an xpath: <config xmlns="http://www.marklogic.com/ps/lib/lib-search/config";> <search-path>/path/to/article</search-path> ... </config> We're planning on dealing with this by adding extra per-document meta-data elements in our dataset containing facet-specific information, but honestly, we really should be able to just inspect the stock data with an xpath to indicate what to facet on. Seems like the last lib-search update was in May. Are there any future plans for lib-search? I'm hesitant about delving into and modifying a library if it's being actively developed by the owner of the project, for example.
