Indicate that media-specific filters are avaliable

Problem

The filters on single media type views are much more powerful than on the 'all results' page, because you can search by source and other media-specific metadata.

Description

How could we make this more powerful filtering clear to our users? Maybe a small message at the bottom of the 'all results' filterbar, something like:

"Narrow your search to a single media type to enable additional filters"

Alternatives

We could make this even more prominent by doing something like showing a blurred-out filter below the message, something like this:

We could also do nothing, if this doesn't concern anyone.

Additional context
