I am using InfoQube now which, while complicated and lacking a lot of
the to do stuff MLO has, has very powerful filtering and custom
columns. Before that I used Bonsai with my own XSL for recurrence
which had good filtering. Before that I used MLO, but left because of
my need for filtering.

FIltering in the outline view is essential for me, here are my main
use cases (for todos):

planning day - show everything that is above priority 2 OR is due
within 3 days
reviewing week - show everything that is above priority 3 OR is due
within 7 days
reviewing area (subtree) - show everything, I only look at one subtree
(sometimes I use hoist, but don't need it)
executing day as outline - stuff I have marked for today grouped by
area (outline), colored by priority
executing day as list - equivalent of MLO's list view - flat list of
stuff I have marked for today or soon ordered by timeframe (today,
week, soon), colored by priority

In addition, I use the idea of "show children" to show subitems when
appropriate in the execute mode. That allows me to see a parent task,
then view/expand it's details/children when I start on that task.

Hope that is a good start, I do miss MLO :).
