Querying inside fields of an object

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I am having a problem determining what the correct mapping is for the
search behavior I want. I want to query ?q=a.b:stuff and get results for
"stuff" inside of a.b.value1 and a.b.value2. What I need is basically a
field wildcard search ?q=a.b.*:stuff to find the string "stuff" in any
field or child object's field inside of a.b. A sample mapping of my data
is below.

{
"mappings":{
"objFoo":{
"_all":{
"enabled":true
},
"properties":{
"a":{
"properties":{
"b":{
"properties":{
"value1":{
"type":"string"
},
"value2":{
"type":"string"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}

How can I find a string in the value1 or value2 fields by querying a.b?

So I got it working temporarily by using an escaped wildcard on the field:

?q=a.b.*:stuff

This will probably work for my needs, but it would be awesome to get
?q=a.b:stuff working (without the field wildcard) if possible.
