Hi David, being filters one of the most asked questions, can I ask why 
we have so many different filters, leading to such complex interactions 
and behaviors?

Don't get me wrong: I am sure you (the lvm team) have very good reasons 
to do that, and I am surely missing something? But what, precisely? How 
should we (end users) consider filters? Should we only use 
global_filter?

Thanks.
