Oh right, the exclude side of the filter, keep forgetting about that. :/
You can just keep adding entries to the Accept filter side, that's effectively an "OR". Close. Also, the more specific you need to be, the better Regex is. For instance, if you want the AND to be in a specific order, that's easier. Like "foobar", "blah blah" ending with a ".rnn".
While there's an interest by some to make this easier to use, you also have to keep in mind that the *vast* majority of end users just type in a word and they're done. That combined with a Subject sort means you're finished. It appears the majority of users that really seem to *need* this do so just because they want to. However, I do agree that having filters that sort out pars, rars, avi's, mp3's, etc. are tremendously useful. Examples of those are already available, no need to reinvent the wheel.
