Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Suppose for example I have a table with a users column and the table has a lot of entries.
Then I would like to list the users that are in that table, so use a view and select only the users column and... yeah! I need a unique filter to select each name only once.
My case doesn't have users column, has a link to Collections page, but the problem is the same, I need to list the linked pages shown each page only once.
Describe the solution you'd like
Honestly, I don't know if the better place to add the option is in filter or maybe in sort options. Because we can add at the end, after the sort action, a check to select unique row view values.
Describe alternatives you've considered
