be careful: "index" doesn't mean "alphabetical" -- it means the natural
ordering of terms as they exist in the index. for non ascii characters
this is not neccessarily something that could be considered alphabetical
(or sensical in terms of the locale).
The short answer is: no, there is no way to get "reverse" index order at
the moment.
: I have a year_facet field, that I would like to display in reverse order (most
: recent years first). Perhaps there is some other way to accomplish this.
the simplest way is to encode the year in some format thta will cause it
to naturally sort in the order you want - so instead of indexing "1976"
and "2007" you could index "8024:1976" and "7993:2007" and then only
display the part that comes after the ":"
