OpenRefine: The facets present while a JSON recipe is applied are ignored
I have some facets which select a subset of rows, and a list of operations represented as a JSON workflow. If I use the history tab to apply this JSON workflow to the project, it will apply to rows selected by the original facets, not just the ones I have selected with my new facets.
Proposed solution
It should be possible to apply a given recipe to a filtered set of rows determined by facets. Not all operations respect facets, so this would only be useful if the workflow only contains operations which do respect them.
Alternatives considered
At the moment, the only solution I can think of is to edit the JSON payload manually to add the facet configurations in the engineConfig parameters of each operation, which is not convenient.

This needs to be user controlled IMO
(that being said I am not really thinking about fixing this in the current UI as things stand, this is more of a way to document the current drawbacks of the existing system, with the hope to design a proper solution for reproducibility - perhaps the mailing list is a better place to do that)
Yes you got it right, removing the striked out “all” to make it clearer for others.
