Description

The following JSONPath expression:
```$.included[?(@.id == $.data.relationships.target.id)]```
would be expected work with the following JSON, but does not: http://api.mocki.io/v1/9c54d246

Individually,
```$.included[?(@.id == "foo")]```
and
```$.data.relationships.target.id```
work, but not when combined.

**Desktop (please complete the following information):**
- OS: Big Sur
- Installation Method: download
- App Version: v2021.1.0

Research direction

Start by reproducing the JSONPath expression against the linked JSON document, then trace the JSONPath evaluation entry point used by the client. Done means the combined filter can compare an array item with the root object's nested value, while the two individual expressions continue to work.
