Compare two custom fields in queries

Would be great to be able to compare two custom fields in query editor.

Example:

Instead of having to type a number, it would be great to be able to select another field to compare with.

I am not sure that is even possible... It is not a SQL server.

You could consider doing it before indexing or as part of the indexing. Either using SQL scheduler that will set a 3rd field to true/false before the indexing job or by creating an extender that will take a look at this and add the field to the index document.

I did not reality check this feature request at all, just relaying something that two different customers really miss in DW.
For them it sounds really simple, but of course I know it is not like that at all. Just wanted to bring it up ;)

Of course we could code something, but that is inconvenient for the customers, since they want the option to do it themselves in smart searches etc.
