True. However, as P214 is a property with string type, you cannont use
the neat query-click interface but have to use the API of WikidataQuery.

For your problem, this would be
http://wikidata-wdq-mm.instance-proxy.wmflabs.org/api?q=string[214:"5726988"]

giving the resulting item list [3300924].


If you additionally want to modify the resulting items with pywikibot:
A page generator for pywikibot which takes such query strings and work
on the resulting item list is currently under review:
