Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-247:
------------------------------------
>
> There are *lots* of reasons why a field might be indexed though, so faceting
> on every indexed field doesn't seem like it would ever make sense.
>
agreed, but *_facet would be useful
>
> if we do this, i would think it only makes sense to generalize the use of "*"
> in both fl and facet.field into a true glob style syntax
One issue is that fl=XXX is typically a field list separated with "," or "|",
facet.field expects each field as a separate parameter.
> Allow facet.field=* to facet on all fields (without knowing what they are)
