Slobodan,

Are you pessimist? :-) I was just hoping that MS thought the feature was not important to dev.community.
You know the funny thing that is definitely not a big effort to create the filter UI to search for reg.path/value names. I did that
through my XPeTools/DependencyExplorer component (let me know if you would like to play with it and I'll send it to you via email)
but I can pretty easy save a .flt file that I can load, see and use (!) it in TD. I can't, however, change the filter as UI is not
there (TD hangs if I try to open the filter UI). Another inconvenience is I have to re-load TD in order to pick up new filters.
