Highcharts - drill down to multiple series

Question

I have a parent chart that I need to drill down to a child chart with multiple series. Here is a toy example of what I would like to do. (I know this does not work) Notice I'm trying to pass in an array of ids to display in the child chart. Does anybody know a way to do this? If someone from Highcharts reads this, can this be added as a feature? ``` $(function () { // Create the chart $('#container').highcharts({ chart: { type: 'column' }, title: { text: 'Basic drilldown' }, xAxis: { type: 'category' }, plotOptions: { column : { stacking : 'normal' } }, series: [{ name: 'Yearly Orders', data: [{ name: 'Location 1', y: 100, drilldown: ['l1-wa', 'l1-wb'] }, { name: 'Location 2', y: 150, drilldown: ['l2-wa', 'l2-wb'] }] }], drilldown: { series: [{ name: 'Widget A', type: 'line', id: 'l1-wa', data: [ {name: 'Qtr 1', y: 5}, {name: 'Qtr 2', y: 25}, {name: 'Qtr 3', y: 25}, {name: 'Qtr 4', y: 20} ] },{ name: 'Widget B', type: 'line', id: 'l1-wb', data: [ {name: 'Qtr 1', y: 10}, {name: 'Qtr 2'…
