I don't know if it would be correct to do it in this framework, but we could
consider making the particle statements a bit more powerful and allowing
multiple filters. For example, something like this:
sphere[["popiii", "M>1e10"], "particle_velocity_x"]
would pick out p_v_x of fantastically massive popiii stars. This may make doing
analysis of large datasets simpler for the end-user when it's done in parallel,
if we do the back-end particle handing "right". I can see some problems with
this, but I'm putting the idea out there.
