Description

If you have a table with a foreign key and a name column defined, it would be nice for the filter for that column in the filter to give you a dropdown showing the name values to select from--or at least let you type that in instead of knowing the id of the row in the foreign key.

(I am just putting this here because I thought of it, I didn't look to see if there is already a capability or something in the works. Just didn't want to forget.)

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the filter handling and the foreign-key metadata used for table columns; done would mean a foreign-key filter can select a related name value or accept that name instead of requiring its ID, with the behavior covered by tests.
