I favour option 1 because it is most closely aligned to user logic (despite the
potential to be misleading in respect to total count across groups). ie. as a
user I am likely to say "show me all of the records in the monkey group". This
will (and of course should, include the FishMonkey record). If I chose to
display all records in both the Fish group and the Monkey group it should still
include only one occurrence of the FishMonkey record as it is only the one
record.
Option 2 would make using the facets unwieldy and confusing as many group names
could easily be duplicated across the primary and secondary groups. It is
definitely desirable to list all groups (primary and secondary) against which a
record (ie. species) is associated so that I can filter the result set by any
of those group associations, but all groups should be listed in a single
"groups" facet.
Option 3 is highly undesirable as it would require users to select a group
every time they enter a record, which in most cases would be an annoying and
superfluous extra step in the form entry.
