Seems easy enough. I can prototype this by the end of the week. If someone 
else wants to try this - please tell so that we can avoid duplication of 
effort. If you allow giving the same constraint multiple times, the "any / all 
/ none" thing can be simplified: A list of tags would be "any of", multiple 
constraints would be "logical and". Then all we need is a general "not" for 
each constraint.

Maybe we can even restore the lost features from the previous filter widget.
