Would it be possible to use any timelion or transformation script in the query? as the watcher does.

something like that idiot example:

> .es (q = '' "" script ": {  
> "source": "" "  
> def theDate = ...  
> "" ",  
> "lang": "painless"  
> } ", index = logstash- \*)

I'm sorry but I don't understand your question. Where are you trying to use the query? In Discover? Timelion? A scripted field?
