It is not an easy change to make. The partial- stuff for single-key
lookups can be done at a low level in the lookup code, just before it
calls the lookup module, because it knows it has been passed a key, and
can munge around with it. By contrast, doing what is wanted here for
query-style lookups requires re-expansion of the query each time, with a
munged value of $key. That happens at a higher level, in several
different places in fact. So don't hold your breath.
