I'm sorry, but I hadn't seen this before submitting this to the issue 
tracker as an enhancement request:
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/6635

In that I talk about a different, but somewhat similar problem: searching 
for filters within sub-folders, that is: being able to say `pandoc 
--lua-filter=wordcount.lua` to be call `$DATADIR/filters/wordcount/wordcount.lua`.  
(Just saying `--lua-filter=wordcount` would be even better, since the file 
extension is assumed.)

I should probably have started a discussion rather than opening it in the 
issue tracker.
