Description

Problem to solve

For custom Selection-Function I'd like to "select all filtered items" independent from current pagination. In VDataTable it is possible to access the current items via @current-items-handler, but this doesn't work for my needs, since this only contains the current page, if there are more items than a page can show.

unfortunatelly filtereditems is a property of the child VData of VDataTable - and now I'm using this way:
datatable.$children[0].filteredItems
that works pretty fine now, but I think it is only a dirty hack and it only works as long as the VDataTable and VData-Child isn't changed...

Proposed solution

Like it is done with the current-items Handler I'd suggest a "filtered-items" Handler

Research direction

Start by tracing VDataTable's @current-items-handler and the child VData filteredItems property. Add a public filtered-items handler that exposes all filtered items regardless of pagination, then verify that it supports the selection use case described.
