Let's use this mapping:

```auto
"foo" : {
           "type":"nested",
           "properties": {
               "fuzzy":{"type":"keyword"},
               "bar":{"type":"keyword"}
           }
        }

```

I've indexed my documents successfully. A sample:

```auto
{
  "foo": [{"fuzzy":"asdas","bar":["jasda","jasdkaj"]}]
}

```

But Kibana can't search or filter using those fields inside each item of the array. Is this a normal behavior or I'm missing something?

thanks!
