My patch keeps all current scripts working as is, but allows a whole lot more power for people who need it.
How it works is all filtering will work as it does now but if you define a specific filterset this will overrid the global filters. ( I might have the test for this backwards now that I think about it i was planning to let globals override locals but that does not make sense. :) The behavior is no different that patternsets/filesets etc so the users are not learning anything new just getting more consistent behavior. I kept in mind that people will want to keep it simple and the current solution is simple so made sure that still worked. I dont really mind either way as Im happy to wade around in the code and make it do what I want plus it gives me a bit of variety. Michael
