I've reported this to the both the customer service line and the IT folks but they say it's not possible. While they're handed a bucket of available flights, it's really not hard to filter out what doesn't apply on the front end.
Your best bet is using an external tool like EF/KVS to search for non-mixed rewards and then plug in those dates. Sucks, agreed.

Alternatively, search each segment availability separately.
