Facetselect

What is a facetselect?

Introduction

A facetselect is a selection of documents that match some criteria. The criteria being that zero or more fields have a given value. Those fields are the facets.
The facetselect node has a docbase, which is the rootnode of which descendents can be selected. The rootnode may be a single document, in which case facets could only result in that single document being selected or not. In the CMS, the facetselect is generally used for internal links, with only a docbase and no facets.

The facetselect node has three multiple strings, which should always be of same size. For each facet, there should be a value and a mode. The modes modify the selection behavior, but 'single' will be fine for a start.
