Originally I didn't think this was good; rather that ordering of filters should be done by the user/coder.(ie add them in the order you want them). After talking to niq on IRC, i realized this is contrary to how filters already operate (why even have connection type filters then? why not have the user apply them in the required order?) It makes sense to add another (or even more) types of filters. This allows for cleaner control of the active filters in addition to making it easier for everyone involved. -Paul Querna
