Am I crazy?

I am trying to graph (via a Historgram panel) two different fields from the  
same indexed document, both having numeric values. I'd also like to compare  
two different numeric fields from DIFFERENT documents (e.g. "hours" in one  
document compared to "hours\_worked" in another).

I see how to filter by document names, etc to help isolate, but ... only  
one field is allowed is the panels? How is that possible?

Unless I am missing something, wondering if there was any trick to using  
the query string (Lucene, regex) to create a work-around.

I read they are working on a custom JSON query component, which would solve  
this type of problem.

Thanks to any and all feedback!
