Something AN has needed for some time is some type of visual alert when filtering is being used. An idea would be a change in the appearance of the filter icon on the button at the bottom of the list view.
This is commonly done in other developers applications, and for good reason. I use the filtering feature and sometimes find myself unknowingly viewing an incomplete (filtered) list after not un-filtering from a previous usage. It's simply not possible to remember the state of the filter all the time.
I have a friend who does not even use the filtering for this reason. It's been suggested by AN users in the past, and this is a good time to implement this in AN5.
