We had a similar challenge here, one of our web programmers helped me figure this out. In this situation, I wanted all layers with a name that did NOT include "Balance", "Ratio", or "Highlight" to appear in this layercontainer:

loader: {
                            filter: function(record) {
                                var myarr = new Array();
myarr[0]=record.get("layer").name.indexOf("Balance"); myarr[1]=record.get("layer").name.indexOf("Ratio"); myarr[2]=record.get("layer").name.indexOf("Highlight");

if(myarr[0]==-1 && myarr[1]==-1 && myarr[2]==-1){
                                    return true;
                                }else{
                                    return false;
                                }
                            }

Not sure if it's THE best solution, but it does work and it's fairly simple to add additional words to search for.
Hope this helps,

Ryan

I am faily new to GeoExt and openlayers. What I am trying to do is add multiple filters to a layercontainer so that I can add multiple layers to each group. Not sure if this is the best way to do this but what I want to do is add all my Street Labels to a group called "Labels" I can add one no problem called Overview Streets with the following code, but I need to add additional layers like one called Quadrant Streets. When I try to modify the filter code to add additional names it doesn't work and I get javascript errors. Any help appreciated!
//Define Layer List Control - Tree Control for Legend Control
var layerList_Labels = new GeoExt.tree.LayerContainer({
        text: 'Labels',
        layerStore: mapPanel.layers,
        leaf: false,
        expanded: false,
        loader: {
            filter: function(record) {
return record.get("layer").name.indexOf("Overview Streets") !== -1 (need to add Quadrant Streets here also)
            }
        }
        });
