In my use case it could be very helpful because I use the SIREn plugin to index arbitrary JSON-LD and this plugin automatically index also all nested attributes as a Solr field. Thus I need for example to gather all entries with a certain value of the "type" attribute, ordered by "name" (but name could be a multivalued attribute in my use case :( ) I'd like to avoid to switch to Elasticsearch just to have this single feature.
