Implement ability to search for specific keys using dot-style JSON "path" syntax
Say I have the following JSON:
{
"a": [
{
"a": [
"a"
]
}
]
}
If I do /a, I'll get three matches. But what if I'm looking for a specific one? This can get really hairy if the JSON is large and heavily nested.
If I want to specifically search for a.a, it'd be super handy to be able to do that directly. Something like /a.a, but obviously something more robust than basic / search would be required lest the keys themselves actually have . in them.
Currently, AFAIK doing this requires leaving jless and reentering it with a jq pipe e.g., jq 'a.a' < file.json | jless. Kind of a pain, especially if I have multiple things to search for.
Alternatively, if this feature is already implemented, please update the :h docs to reflect this, because I didn't see anything about it.
