Description

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

For selection type columns, allow filtering on Me (ID) or Me (username)

I have three options in the column "tester":

  • lab1
  • lab2
  • lab3

I have three users:

  • lab1
  • lab2
  • lab3

At the moment, I can only filter one option out of the three.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the selection-column filter described in the issue, using a view filtered on tester = Me. Trace where selection values and users are handled in the filtering flow, then verify that both Me by username and Me by ID work for selection type columns and that existing single-option filtering still works.
