Graphql filtering out custom fields results

[Seitanas]

Hello,
it seems that I can't find the way to filter out results from custom fields while using graphql.
For example:

curl -H "Authorization: Token $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" http://netbox.local/graphql/ --data '{"query": "query {device_list(name:\"test.server\") {name custom_fields}}"}'

returns device name and all custom fields. But if i want to return only speciffic field it does not work:

curl -H "Authorization: Token $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" http://netbox.local/graphql/ --data '{"query": "query {device_list(name:\"test.server\") {name custom_fields{ price }}}"}'

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Field 'custom_fields' must not have a selection since type 'GenericScalar' has no subfields.",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 65
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Is this kind of filtering is possible at all?
Thank you.

My understanding is that custom_fields are stored as a JSON blob in the DB and their contents may be opaque to GraphQL — Mark Tinberg ***@***.***> Division of Information Technology-Network Services University of Wisconsin-Madison

Well that's unfortunate.
Thank you for clarification.
