Hi Daniel,

That makes sense. When you're adding a new field, you can target any lookup because the field doesn't have an existing type. When you change the lookup for an existing field, you can only target queries that have a primary key that's the same type of column. This is because we don't support changing an existing field's type at this point (String->Integer, for example).

Thanks,
Josh
