Description leonid.maslov CLA 2009-09-09 11:16:46 EDT
_Task List_ and other issue filters - addds ability to filter issues by entering text into _Find_ unput text field. 

*Use case* : I have a list if Issue ids i have to pay attention to (from emails, skype, whatever over sink). It would be killer feature for me to filter those in the _Task view_ at once by pasting into _Find_ input text field the id list.  Currently it filters by looking all the words entered in teh Issue summary.
Lets assume i have issue list:
* XXX-1 Some short Summary 
* XXX-2 Some another more brief summary
* XXX-3 Some another one and even more brief summary

Currently IO have an ability to enter 'some', this will filter all the 3 issue (making other to dissapear). 

*Expected enhancement*
I expect that I could enter 'XXX-1, XXX-2' and other delimiters (',_;')  and this will filter (making other issue to dissapear).
_Expected filtered output:_
* XXX-1 Some short Summary 
* XXX-2 Some another more brief summary

The Open Repository Task dialog does support opening of multiple tasks that are separated by comma. We could consider extending the filter in the task list to allow combined queries, e.g. "key-1 OR key-2" or use comma as a separator.
