Hi David,

No, I am not sure about this. If I have an item I1, and has two 
properties Px, Py, where Py is a copy of Px but with a different name, 
then I should have:

I1   Px   A
I1   Py   A
I1   Px   B
I1   Py   B

When I select Px=A for I1,  then in the facet of Py, I should still see 
the value of B AND A, because item I1's property Py has the values of A 
and B. But in facet Py, I don't want to show the "A" to the users, but 
only the "B", to help them to continue to filter their records.

That's my understanding about how the facet browsing works in Exhibit. 
Please correct me if I am wrong or I misinterpreted what you meant as 
making a copy of the property

Thanks,

Jun
