Yes, that's what I was suggesting in my earlier comments. That, and to achieve restriction by environment only via a selection predicate; i.e. no way to configure a different default. That should provide a smooth transition because the behavior of existing collections relative to multiple environments will not change. Also, it fits my mental model better to limit results by adding filters, as opposed to expanding results by removing filters. And it is not clear to me in general that limiting searches by environment is necessarily the behavior that is expected or most desired. I couldn't have told you what the previous behavior was in that regard, but now that it's been described, I don't find it at all surprising.
