It could work of course, but it hurts to have to do that to just filter out correctly a dropdown menu... What I was doing until now was to have a single returning json_feed which for each dropdown required... But it not try, I need to create almost identical function for each particular dropdown to feed typeahead widget with remote data... I am padding smart_query() with unittest right now before give a try to make it accept "grouped" query...
