If you build range indexes on foo and bar, the entries will contain values equivalent to the serialization of data(foo), and data(bar). If all you have is a child element string wrapped around the value, you may be fine. But if there are multiple elements, you can have results you don't like:
<name> <first>Jim</first> <last>Smith</last> </name> data(/name) --> JimSmith I would try it on a sample and see if it yields what you want. Based on your example, I think it will.

I need two facets for two elements that have child elements with the same QName i.e., e.g., <foo/> and <bar/> that have the <string> child from my example. I cannot create range index on <foo/> and <bar/> because the text node is not their direct child but rather a children of the <string/> element. I suppose restructuring the content will fix this problem too but I was hoping to avoid doing that. We are able to create word constraint without a content reconstruction by defining two fields but as it turned out this solution does not work for facets.
