Title:
  [filtering] does not support hierarchy

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  In v6, the filtering cannot be performed on "view"-type items in the
  category field of a partner for example. Consider the following case:

  Define partner categories as follows:

  man
  man->thin
  man->thick
  woman
  woman->thin
  woman->thick

  Now if you have a set of partners, you can define a filter on "thin",
  on "thick" but not on "man" or "woman" or "woman thick". This means
  that you cannot find back a thin woman in a filter for example.

  I believe this is an unwanted limitation of the filter mechanism.
