> Using the "drill-down" function in faceting should - at least by default - behave like Amazon's faceting: it affects the filtering of the list shown as current results but should not affect the faceting count of other facets.
> (It will of course affect sub-facets, so people can navigate up/down the facet tree to narrow down the results and explore different branches, but the parent branch and it's peers shouldn't be affected.
> It's still possible to apply global filters which affect all facets (like a filter applied on root): example enable "only items with at least 4 star reviews" might affect all counters in the tree.
> But if I'm in the area "TVs", and then the options {"LED", "Plasma"} open up, when we select "LED" the counters for both "Plasma" and "LED" should not change -> just of course the main results list will show only LED televisions.
> For those people who think it should be possible to affect such a drill down feature as a filter, they can still apply the filter globally (on the root query).
> {quote}<emmanuel> but to move forward, let's start with what we have. It seems that such alternative are definitely going to be an option on the FacetedManager
