Actually the #5 example was never implemented, but you can use a 
different mechanism for what you want. After including exhibit-api.js, 
add this JS code

    <script>
       Exhibit.FunctionUtilities.registerSimpleMappingFunction(
         "my-translate",
         function(n) {
              return "public"; // or whatever, depending on n
         },
          "text"
        );
    </script>

Then define your facet like so

    <div ex:role="facet" ex:expression="my-translate(.someProperty)"></div>

where someProperty is the property to translate.
