Is there a cleaner alternative to '{{ (things | json_query("[?name==''" + thing_name + "'']") }}'

Is there a cleaner alternative to:

    '{{ (things | json_query("[?name==''" + thing_name + "'']")  }}'

In particular, ideally I want to avoid:

• String concatenation
  
• Escaping of quotes

You can move the actual query string to a separate variable to reduce some clutter and string concatenation. You can also use ` (backticks) to quote jmes_path strings:

      set_fact:

         enabled_ports: "{{ intfs | json_query(enabled)}}"

      vars:

         enabled: "values(@)[?is_enabled && is_up && vlan_tag == `{{ mgmt_vlan }}`]"

kind regards
