Will addPresearch with link-entity work

Hello,

So im trying to filter a lookup using addPreSearch, i have done it before but the fetchXml was pretty straight forward and i could use a connection between the two entities.

This is the fetch i need to use now, and i know i read somewhere that this type of fetch cannot be executed when you have a link-entity in the fetch.

<fetch version="1.0" output-format="xml-platform" mapping="logical" distinct="true">
  <entity name="new_wineregion">
    <attribute name="new_wineregionid" />
    <attribute name="new_name" />
    <attribute name="createdon" />
    <order attribute="new_name" descending="false" />
    <link-entity name="product" from="new_wineregion" to="new_wineregionid" alias="ad">
      <filter type="and">
        <condition attribute="new_vendor" operator="eq" uiname="Martin Stein" uitype="account" value="{F2183A76-A9C0-E711-80F6-000C2939F531}" />
      </filter>
    </link-entity>
  </entity>
</fetch>

Should i divert to using addCustomFilter instead? It looks a bit more messy as i need to create also the layout of the fetch...so i'm hoping i can avoid it....

Any advice is welcomed
