Description
Currently it is possible to define multi-fields within a multi-field:
PUT my_index
{
"mappings": {
"properties": {
"city": {
"type": "text",
"fields": {
"raw": {
"type": "keyword",
"fields": {
"as_double": {
"type": "double"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
This behavior was probably unintentional and is not well-tested. We could not think of a good use case for chained multi-fields and would like to deprecate + remove support for the behavior.
Relates to #11053.
