Description

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but the only read access to the leveldb node I can find is just a simple key in msg.topic. If we don't know the exact key and want to sort/filter the data, is there any further API access to access? I have timestamped data and need to pull out ranges, etc.

Is this possible with the current functions?

Research direction

Review the current LevelDB node API and how reads are exposed through msg.topic. Determine whether range and filtering access is supported; done means documenting the supported behavior or defining the needed iterator or range API and its usage.
