We all do it that way, right? You specify the facets, and then the user 
starts to browse -- User X gets to pick the facet that's most important to 
her, and User Y gets to pick a different facet that's most important to 
him. Customizing the browse path is one of the most important 
ramifications of FC.

And on Bob's CMS Review site, that's the preeminent idea. The clickpaths 
are a bit longer -- it takes two pages to select a single heading in a 
facet -- but it really drives the concept home. Thanks for another good 
example.
