Multi select faceting
Hi,
We're using Lucid Imagination's LucidWorks Solr 1.3 and we have a requirement to implement multiple-select faceting where the facet cells show up as checkboxes and despite checked options, all of the options continue to persist with counts. The best example I found is the search on Lucid Imagination's site: http://www.lucidimagination.com/search/
It appears the Solr 1.4 release has support for doing this with filter tagging (http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SimpleFacetParameters#head-f277d409b221b407d9c5430f552bf40ee6185c4c), but I was wondering if there was another way to accomplish this in 1.3?

Grant, thanks for the reply. We tested our requirement against 1.4-dev and
were able to achieve what we wanted. The site we're rebuilding has low
traffic, so we're going to run with 1.4-dev.
Cheers.

The only way I can think to do this is to backport the patch to 1.3.
FWIW, we are running 1.4-dev at /search, which is where that
functionality comes from.
