Overview is here: http://yonik.com/json-facet-api/
The structured nature of nested sub-facets are more naturally expressed in a nested structure like JSON rather than the flat structure that normal query parameters provide.
Goals:
- First class JSON support
- Easier programmatic construction of complex nested facet commands
- Support a much more canonical response format that is easier for clients to parse
- First class analytics support
- Support a cleaner way to do distributed faceting
- Support better integration with other search features
