The attached patch warns the user about "!=" and "ne" by coloring
the filter
entry yellow and adding a message to the status bar any time either
of those
tokens are present. It's a bit less obtrusive than popping up a dialog.
Yes, this is very intuitive even when the user forget why != can give
wrong results.
It's been checked in.
A few comments:
- The statusbar warning is not displayed while a live capture is in progress
- When you point to the filter entry field, there is no mention of what
yellow means
- The statusbar message should probably mention to check a certain
place in the user's guide for more explaination
I finally got around to fixing the first and third items. Stig fixed the second
one a while back.
