Mark Payne updated NIFI-5903:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
QueryRecord is an immensely powerful tool when evaluating "flat" data such as 
CSV or flattened JSON. However, when evaluating data that has a lot of nested 
elements, it loses a lot of its power quickly because there is no way to query 
those nested elements. We should enable users to use RecordPath to pull out 
particular fields of a Record so that we can write queries like:

{{SELECT *}}
{{FROM FLOWFILE}}
{{WHERE RPATH(organization, '/department/name') = 'Research and Engineering'}}
