Can ElasticSearch return elements of an array of a single document?

Question

With a document like:

{
    "obj1" : [
        {
            "name" : "blue",
            "count" : 4
        },
        {
            "name" : "green",
            "count" : 6
        }
    ]
}

Is it possible to query for a obj1.name = "blue" to obtain the matching element of the array, not the document?:

{
    "name" : "blue",
    "count" : 4
}

Thanks in advance!

I think it is not possible now. But there is open issue for returning nested inner objects.
