A different way, that skips coders, is the following:
Define some new items in your json file:
items: [
{label: "First kind",
number: "1"},
{label: "Second kind",
number: "2"},
etc.
]
then, assuming you have items with a "kind" property, just make a
<div ex:role="facet" ex:expression=".kind!number"></div> and the words
will show up in the facet.
