Before opening a feature request

  • I checked the next branch to see if the feature has already been implemented
  • I searched existing reports to see if it is already requested.

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

I would like to have the ability to disable matching/filtering for elements so that only the sorting is enabled. It would be nice to have that as a config option.

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

If you are searching through a lot of elements, filtering through them is quite important to remove noise. But if there are only a few things to search through, typos would easily remove entries that I would like to keep, even when setting the matching algorithm to a more "fuzzy" options.

Who will benefit from it?

People who want to search through data without filtering elements.
