I think what the OP is after is what is currently called faceted search.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faceted_classification

There is nothing in Swish-e to do that, nor is there any particular feature like that

feature like that, since the API should allow for retrieving documents directly by
PropertyName (I think).
