Description Dirk Fauth CLA 2023-06-13 04:41:31 EDT 
With an Excel-like filter row, the clear operation for a single column sets all possible values as selected. This way it is determined if all is selected and therefore nothing is filtered. A clear all operation will simply set the value "SELECT_ALL" for every column, to avoid the loading of possible values for every column. This is a difference in the further handling whether you call clear for a single column or clear for all columns.

If a user cleared a filter for a single column and then loads/reloads data, the clear filter icon appears and vanishes as the check whether a filter is applied and has changed does not match correctly.

For consistency the clear operation for a single column should also set the value SELECT_ALL instead of the all possible value collection.
