Default filters for specific views

 

Hello everybody,

A customer of the company that I work for heavily uses custom filters,
especially custom default filters.
The problem with (default) filters is that that they apply to a model
and not to a specific view of a model. Therefore we developed a
proof-of-concept add-on [1] that allows to bind filters to a specific
action so that views that are triggered from different menu entries can
have different filters.

Do you think this is a generally useful feature or would you need
something different to enhance the value of filters in OpenERP?

Best,
 Thomas.
