Description Dirk Fauth CLA 2023-01-16 08:22:54 EST 
The current available IFilterStrategy implementations only allow to define filters. It is possible to add dynamic filters entered by users and it is possible to add static filters that are added programmatically. These two filter types are combined in AND mode and result in removing items from a collection.

There are use cases where you would like to avoid that items can be filtered by a user. For example a user marks some entries in a table he wants to see always, and then applies a filter to find other entries of interest.

There should be an IFilterStrategy that also allows to exclude entries from a filter.
