Hi David,

yes, exactly, thanks for your help.

I tried to find out what you did, and I think there were basically two
changes, the selector in the facet, and, I guess more importantly, you
moved the Tier items from

{
  id: "de",
 ...
}

over to
{
  label: "de",
  ...
}

with those items having no id properties at all anymore. Is that
correct? If so, mind explaining why that fixed it?

I'd hope that I would actually end up not needing your help with the
next few ;-)

FYI, I just put http://l10n.mozilla.org/buildbot/statistics live the
other day, an exhibit for navigating timeplots :-) If only timeplots
would allow faceted browsing.

Axel
