As stated in another issue, I and a co-maintainer are developing GSA Faceted Search ability, and we'd like to use this module to take care of basic faceting.

We need to add the ability to put the facet code into the query. We found some vestigial code for facet parameters in the query, but it was commented out. We uncommented that and put another small snippet of code in to work for our purposes. Patch is attached.

Any chance we can get this committed to your module? I'm open to hearing other ideas if you would prefer to implement this in a different way.

Hmm... Feels a little non-standard to base the meta tag filtering on some special structure in the query.

Is it not possible for you to add the requiredfields data via an implementation of hook_google_appliance_query_alter()?

Thanks for your suggestion Eric!!
We will try to implement via hook_google_appliance_query_alter() and will let you know ;)
