Description
Using a filter that Liquid does not recognize causes the invalid filter to be ignored and no warning will be generated.
It would be nice if there was a way to get a warning in this case, instead of these errors being silently ignored. I was expected the strict error mode to catch invalid filters upon parse, and I think that would be the ideal solution.

Research direction
Start by reproducing a template that uses an unrecognized filter, then trace how strict error mode handles parsing and unknown filters. Done means invalid filters no longer pass silently and the chosen warning or parse-time error is covered by a regression test.
