          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 76901
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: In Standard Filter dialog, remove the "None" option
                    from "Field Name"
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.2.0.2 rc
         Component: UI
           Product: LibreOffice

Take any dataset and apply Autofilter to it. (Data > Filter > Autofilter).
Then click on any column head, and select "Standard Filter" option.

The Standard Filter GUI pops up.

Click on the first pull-down ("Field Name"). 
Observe that it lists a "-None-" option.

In terms of query-building, this creates confusing statements:

Let us try a few sample statements:
1. Find None that is empty
2. Find None that is not empty

Also, the GUI behaves erratically:
1. When we choose an option from a pull-down list, the options available in the
pull-down on its right should be altered suitably. But in some cases it is
reverse: When you select something on the right, the left column options change
(which you had already selected!).

2. Some of the pull-down menus are grayed out, but the behavior is neither
consistent nor logical.

See the video here:

Please download and inform so that I can remove the video from my drive.
I do not intend to keep it indefinitely.

Desired:
1. Remove the "None" option.
2. Introduce the "left-to-right" behavior
   (when we operate a control, all the controls on its right side, or below,
MAY change their behavior. But it must NEVER happen in the reverse direction.)
