Quick filter on columns (like other spreadsheets do)

Larson

I'd like to be able to just do a quick filter on a column or more than one column without having to create a whole filter on it.

For example, I'd like a quick dropdown on "Responsible" where I could check of one or a few names and it'll just show me those.

Then I could do a quick filter on "Status" column and select only In Progress or Not Started.

This way I can quickly change the filtering without having to create a new filter, have a huge list of saved filters, one for every Responsible name and Status configuration available. (e.g. Bob's tasks, all statuses, Bob's tasks in progress, Bob's tasks not started, Sara's tasks all statuses, Sara's tasks in progress, etc.)

This would be AMAZING!! It is a feature that I now feel like we take for granted in other programs. It is so many fewer clicks than having to build out a filter for every scenario. This is a powerful feature to both save developers time but also end users are familiar with and expect this type of function.

In addition to being able to "assign" a column as a filter, it would be nice to be able to optionally PIN the column filter to a designated "Filter" area to help give it visibility.

This is definitely needed. e.g. you have a column that has missing data in some fields. quick filter, add, remove filter, done.
Having so many predetermined filter is awkward.
