We can't leave them as is, or we'll get 2 human descriptions -- the built-in Datasette one and the one from my plugin. We can't remove them, or the filters UI will stop supporting the `=` and `!=` operators This got me thinking: it'd be neat if the list of operators that the filters UI supported wasn't a closed set. A motivating example: adding a geospatial `NEAR` operator. Ideally it'd take two arguments - a target point and a radius, so you could express a filter like `find me all rows whose lat/lng are within 10km of 43.4516° N, 80.4925° W`. (Optionally, the UI could be enhanced if the geonames database was loaded and queried, so a user could say `find me all rows whose lat/lng are within 10km of Kitchener, ON`, and the city gets translated to a lat/lng for them) | {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | 1186696202 |
