Hmmm this is something that never really occurred to me before. We have
proper support for match tables by using <composite-element> mappings (a
very powerful feature that I'm not sure people actually understand
properly). However queries can never refer to fields of composite elements!
Even with the new indexing [] stuff, I havn't (yet) implemented support for
composite elements.
