Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Creating an interface for editing Rows of huge an diverse Datasets.

Describe the solution you'd like

The possibility to add a view to an app that only shows rows matching a query. It also would be handy to add multiple search fields to the view wich are limited to search in specific columns. If the fields presented by the edit dialouge could be dependent on the value of a field in that row one could create more complex and user friendly Apps.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

I have a huge list of items that i would either search by serial number or description. I then would like to edit the found row which may use different columns based on its Vendor.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the existing table view, row filtering and search behavior, and the edit dialogue. Done would require a defined approach for query-based views, column-specific search fields, and fields that vary by row values.
