Hehe. Agreed to some extend. But as I mentioned, I know that he is trying to finish this code - real life has thrown him a lot of problems in the last three months and real life always comes first.

My suggestion would be that you wait documenting this for a couple of days so we see how much can sanely be implemented in 4.3 and what should be pushed to 5.0.
Worst case I once again adjust my release time line.

I really agree with Davide that the buttons to show / clear / hide the filters are important and a must have for 4.3.

The counts are a really cool idea so I want to at least look into how hard those would be to implement (and how confusing they would be to the user… you could have 30 boat dives and 200 photo dives, yet selecting both boat and photo you get 210 dives shown (because some, but not all boat dives are also photo dives)… I think this makes a lot of sense, but I’ll need to see it in action.
