Yes we can filter changes by author/change/comment/date but the problem is the
filter is a drop down. If there are 3 authors to the document, and I would like
to see the changes by only 2 authors — this is not possible since the drop down
allows selection of only 1 author at a time.

Similarly, if one wants to see all the insertions and deletions simultaneously
but not the formats and table changes — then that is not possible. One can only
see insertions or deletions at a time but not both without the others.

This is good but it does not give the option whether to track something at all
or not in the first place. For instance I don't want the LO to track formats in
the file but there doesn't exist a way to change this behavior. MSO allows one
track selectively. When I open a file that I edited in MSO with
insertion/deletions tracked but formats untracked, in LO it automatically
tracks formats and then when I switch to MSO it is a mess since all format
changes are shown in the review pane. This is particularly annoying when there
is a team working on a file and each member prefers to work either in MSO or
LO.

Hope this clarifies the need.
