> As a person, I need facet values to be in predictable, intuitive spots so that I can quickly and easily find the values that are appropriate to me.
> Problem Statement: Today Solr has two default facet sort orders, neither of which provides predictable, intuitive facet value orders for people when the values start with numbers.  
> Goal: Address the problem where index sorts facet values how a computer would rather than how a human would.  This is very problematic for E-commerce facets like 'size' and 'tire width'
> Acceptance Criteria:
> 1. 
> 2. Capitalization should NOT impact sort order.
> currently index sorts facets that start with lower case below all facets that start with upper case.  Many brands (for reasons unknown to me) start their brand name with a lower case letter (while I would like to punish these brands for this foolishness, I don't want to punish the innocent customers of these brands).
> Example: 
> Today: Marmot,Patagonia,Smith,Zoot,majola,prAna
> Desired: majola,Marmot,Patagonia,prAna,Smith,Zoot
