Hi everyone,

My name is Gayathri, and I am a CNCF CommunityBridge student working on adding 
post-processors to Query APIs 
<https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/7947>. In order to add 
this feature on Query APIs, we would like to better understand the 
different kinds of output modifiers you would potentially like to have in 
the future, along with their use cases.

The idea of an output modifier is to modify the output of the query API 
after evaluation on the server side (e.g Prometheus). This helps in 
improving the user experience immediately on API level.

Some examples of output modifiers are:
* Sorting and limiting the query results (by selecting the top k results).
* The ASAP smoother <https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/5094>, 
which can be used to smooth out spikes in a data series.

We would similarly love to understand any other modifiers that might be 
useful to you to better adjust decisions we make now. Do you have any 
output modifier/post-processor that would be useful to compute on query 
output? 

Kind Regards,
Gayathri V.
