Live filter to hide files in a folder containing the chosen filter
In the live filter (a feature I originally requested and love
) it would be useful to have a negative filter i.e. a way to type in letters and numbers that make files containing those letters and numbers disappear from view until the filter is removed e.g. if I have four files in a folder Doc1, Doc2, Doc1 draft, and Doc2 draft I may want to view the files in the folder unless they contain the word "draft" in their title. So I want a filter box to filter out files containing the word "draft" in their title. Any other filter used would still yield files with the word draft in it. So in summary it would be good to have two live filter boxes, one that shows all files containing the filter typed and one that hides from view all files in a folder that contain the filter typed.

I tried typing "!" before the filter but I cannot seem to get it to work...is there a script that needs to be applied?
