For what it's worth- you can do some complex stuff - including using
document fields as "variables" -- I did it on an Solr query endpoint (like
/search) because I had stuff that was constant for every query. The syntax
is challenging, but it can be done.
I won't confuse the issue more unless you need something like that - let me
know if you do.
