   > +1, thanks @epotyom — this adds the capabilities of the first faceting 
impl (two-phase) to the new sandbox faceting engine?
   
   You are correct.

   In Amazon product search, we want to add support for rank-dependent 
associative facets, e.g. sorting facets by max doc relevance, where the 
relevance expression depends on the ranks of the top-N matching documents. 
Other potential use cases that come to mind are  [dynamic 
ranges](https://github.com/apache/lucene/blob/247b96e7f3ffb23de140718449c1b3ab9082b944/lucene/demo/src/java/org/apache/lucene/demo/facet/DynamicRangeFacetsExample.java)
 (which require numeric values for all matches before they can be computed), 
and percentile aggregates for facets. Note that this change isn’t the only 
thing we need to integrate these features with the new faceting API, but it 
enables them in the future.
