[hibernate-dev] HSEARCH FacetManager.getFacetingNames()

[Emmanuel Bernard]

Actually a List might make sense if the order you define faceting is the
order you want to expose it. But that's a tiny bit far fetched.

I would love for our API to be easily consumed by UIs but it's a tiny
bit impractical at the moment. I've identified the name list issue,
serializability is a concern (JSON) and Facet.getValue() for range
facets is crap to expose.
