What if we, (1) added a bool contains(int ord) method to FacetRecorder, and (2) changed this candidate iterator to take in a FacetRecorder during initialization instead of wrapping another iterator, then (3) it could "lead" the iteration from the candidate set provided and use contains to filter it down (rather than the current pattern that starts with all ordinals seen by the recorder and filters down using the provided set)? Good idea, it makes sense! Alternatively we can always require Count recorder, and check that the count for ordinal is greater than zero. But `contains` should be somewhat faster, and also I can't come up with a good reason why all FacetRecorders can't have `contains` method - so I'll implement `contains`. > This is of course assuming the common case is the recorder observes many more ordinals than provided candidates. Or maybe we could support both patterns somehow? Maybe the iterator could be smart about this like we are in other places ("leading" with the candidate or the recorder ordinals depending on heuristics)? Maybe we can also add `size` method to FacetRecorder interface? It can help make the decision - if `FacetRecorder.size` is greater than candidates size - use candidate ords as a source? It might be a premature optimization, in most cases candidate set should be smaller; so I suggest we implement the decision logic as a follow up. But we can implement `size` now, and remove `isEmpty` method, which is probably less useful?
