As in, you want each suggestion include the number of documents it
would match if that suggestion would be run as the query?
Wouldn't that require one to execute that query, so if you want to
show 10 suggestions, you'd hit Solr 10 times?
Not if you use faceting with the facet.prefix capability :) It gives
back counts per term suggested.
