Filter for specific filename/filetype during BKRLIST of SFS filespace.

We are a large user of SFS and often have the same filename/filetype in different SFS file spaces or directory paths. On the initial BKRLIST panel there is no ability to filter on device or path, so it’s really cumbersome to find the file you want. For example, if you issue BKRLIST for a specific filename, filetype, and user – we have 1800 instances of a file in the backup catalog in several different SFS directory paths. So you would have to scroll through all of them looking for the one you want.

It would be nice to have a filename/filetype filter on the panel.
