Description

Hi,
I'm using spring-data-jdbc 2.3.1 and by reading https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/jdbc/docs/current/reference/html/#repositories.query-methods.query-property-expressions , find by nested properties should work, but when I write method that tries to filter by nested property, I get an error: Cannot query by nested property
Reference is 1on1.
Should this be supported by spring-data-jdbc?

Research direction

Start by comparing the referenced query-property-expressions documentation with spring-data-jdbc 2.3.1 and reproduce the nested-property method against the stated 1:1 relationship. Determine whether the documented behavior applies to Spring Data JDBC; done when support status and the expected behavior are clarified.
