Allow merge_asof on first column of like-levelled MultiIndexes
This change essentially allows you to merge_asof on the first level of a MultiIndex, treating the levels after the first as additional 'by' columns. It is possible to do the reset_index/set_index oneself but I think this is a nice syntax and a fairly natural thing to do. Would you be interested in incorporating something like this into pandas?
