Searcher isn't very descriptive. Strykaizer made great progress in terms of an UI but we still see the "Searcher" as the element where the facet gets it's data from. We need to brainstorm about this name as it is not the most optimal.

Search API is using datasources to define where the index gets its data from. I would suggest we use datasource as well as the internal name and then think of a better way to explain to the user what this means. "Facet Datasource" doesn't sound too bad though? Maybe "Facet Source Data" or "Facet Source"

Thoughts?

After some discussion in irc, it looks like we landed on "Facet Source" as a name for searcher.
