String filter search should accept space as separator for logical OR

When searching for values in String Filter Menu user should be able to define multiple terms separated with whitespace. Search should connect them with logical OR and promote multiple hits.

Hi, do you have any updates on this case ?

This issue awaits better ideas. We can't use space because space is valid character in filtered field. Feel free to chime in!

Idea for consideration

Separate mode of string filter:

  • textarea for pasting series of values
  • dropdown with separator options, by default something like semicolon, possible to select space, comma, something obscure
  • preview of values for validation (are all values present, maybe omitted values are malformed and user wants to correct them?)
