Comment:

 Supporting boolean expressions is enough for the framework. It will be
 possible for 3rd party libs to support more fluent syntaxes by converting
 algebraic expressions into database expressions, similar to how combinable
 works. Whether or not anyone attempts to do that is neither here nor
 there.

 I think this is a really good change. Having to annotate to filter is not
 just cumbersome, but as you've shown also a large performance hit.

 The docs might need a little bit of work, but I think the code and tests
 are fine.
