Would it make sense to rename the "Filter Expressions" preference to
"Filter Buttons"? It might make it more obvious what this feature does.

It does, although it's still hideous inconsistent UI design considering the Display Filter dialog accessible

Thanks,
Jaap

Many likes the quick accessibility though...
If renamed I'd vote for "Filter Buttons"

Hi,

The accessibility is not in question. It's the two seperate 'collections' of
display filters, accessible through different means, that make it inconsistent.

Thanks,
Jaap
Just wanted to point out that some find the filter buttons a useful feature which shouldn't be discarded (lightly).
