In solr when importing a mysql query where I've done a one to many join  
using a group\_concat function I'm able to set a fieldname for faceting that  
is "multivalued" and in my data-config file put a splitby="," for the  
field. Currently I'm using jprante's excellent plugin for ES and I'm  
wondering if it's possible to do something similar?
