Try to unify group, facet, any other functionality into solr_search, or a new fxn about solrium HOT 3 CLOSED

@sckott I'm just a lurker, but saw your comment. The only way to get back the original style document listing with grouping is to use, assuming the field you are grouping on is batch_id:

group=true&group.field=batch_id&group.format=simple&group.main=true

You will get back one document per grouping, but at least the structure doesn't change!

A colleague of mine who was working on a rich javascript Solr client in AngularJS, actually added a separate mapping layer from what Solr returns to what his application expects. This gave him a place, in the mapping, to change things up when you go from a regular result to a grouping type of result.

@epugh Thanks for pointing that out. I guess I was aware of that (that you can get the docs back) but it seems like you can't get back the docs element and the grouping data (or any other elements, like facets, stats, etc.), correct?

done now in solr_all(), may need tweaking, but pretty much done
