Hey folks! I’ve encountered something that looked to me like a bug, involving named queries inside nested queries. I’ve also found this issue on Github: [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/46231](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/46231) It looks very much like what we encounter. Does anyone know if that’s supposed to be addressed in any near version? Is there something I can do to help prioritise this issue against other issues? ---

+1 to this request - we use a very complicated query and named queries help us a lot with understanding the way elastic scores our documents. Using them in a nested context would be amazing. ---
