Saved filters: filter for multiple projects or child projects with "like"

Feature Discussion
1

Since it is currently not possible to show a sub-project’s tasks in the parent project’s view, it would be a neat workaround to be able to apply the “like” operator to the “project” field

But this throws an error like "The task filter value ‘text’ for field ‘project_id’ is invalid.

So apparently the operator compares “text” against the numeric field ‘project_id’ and not the project title, and therefore does not accept text. However, the “=” and “in” operators happily accept text in this case.
“project like test%” does not work, but “project = test1” works.

This has been reported as a bug already here
but I am not sure that this was registered as a feature request.

It would really help filtering for similar projects or serve as a workaround for displaying all child project’s tasks with the parent project.

This is due to the way the api works. We’re translating the title to an id under the hood and then passing the query along.
