I've found a way. So, just for the record, and to answer my own question, we can search in values of a specified index of a data tiddler by simply performing a full text search using a search term that's made up by the value being queried and the index that can be defined as a macro substitute, like here:
[search:text[skill: $(skill_level)$]] having defined: <$set name=skill_level value=advanced> ... </$set> This of course has limitations (possible false positives depending on a way the queried dataset is structured) but that's the only way I've found. Still, looking forward to better solutions. Thanks!
