Custom filters with range instead of all values

Hi again.

Sorry for this questions but ideas are coming into my head constantly :) I have a column in a table which displays average temperatures. I would like to place a filter on this column, but with range instead of values. Something like:
5-10
11-20

or > 20 and < 25

Is it possible ?

Not via the filters feature. However, you can manually filter using the column-header search feature (i.e. if you click on the column header, it will make a search field appear), then you can use Xataface search conventions for searching ranges. E.g. "5..10" to match values between 5 and 10 inclusive.

When I click column header table gets sorted by that column. No search feature there ?

Try not to click on the header text... click on the background of the header.

Hmm... It's possible that this didn't get added until 2.0...

Looks like a 2.0 feature, not seeing it here either (sounds handy though!).
