All good info guys. Appreciate the responses.

Some more on the use case: I'm wanting to display the platonic ideal of
sorts for a given set of potential vendor names.

In some cases I can get away w a lookup in our database based on the term
in the document (not its other synonyms) brought back from the search (in
the analytics related query we do, for instance, leveraging the stats
component). But when we show the user the constituent data id like to show
the same platonic ideal. I could do the same lookup mentioned above for
display purposes. But if they want to sort on that column then my tricks
are suddenly exposed and I'm at a loss.

Does that make sense?
