My point is just that what we actually do inside what is currently referred 
to as the "filter" parameter is really more "operating" than "filtering". 
The common view of a filter is probably someting that *"filters out" stuff 
to get a subset of the input*, but that is just a small sample of what we 
normally do within this parameter... hence more suitably named "operations" 
IMO. Perhaps eve "actions" or simply "do" for a more colloquial parameter 
name... *Hey, I really like "do"!* As you note, the concept of "filtering" 
is in deed a subset of "operating" so it is more a matter of a title 
promotion.
