Description
When using search filters it can be annoying to write the Javascript filter code because not all the ES6+ features are supported. Additionally we don't have the usual IDE support in the form of autocompletion/intellisense as well as typesafety. We believe we can fix this by implementing the monaco-editor (https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/) and by utilizing Typescript. The goal is to make it much easier, flexible (due to typescript that can be transpiled to ES5 compatible code for the JS engine) and fault tolerant (typesafety) to write filter queries.
This issue supersedes https://github.com/cloudhut/kowl/issues/92

Research direction
Start by locating the existing message-filter editor and reviewing the superseded issue #92, then read the Monaco Editor documentation linked in the issue. The intended result is a Monaco-based TypeScript editing experience with autocompletion, IntelliSense, type safety, and transpilation to ES5-compatible filter code.
