Quick filters on custom fields

Inna S

Dear community,

I'm coming from  a tool where a user can quickly add any field to form a filter. Built-in fields and custom fields. 

By default, the values in the fields are assumed to work with AND operator. Empty filters are ok too.

An advanced mode, available on the same page via a switch, allows to form more complex queries using AND, OR, NOT, Greater Than etc. operators. 
The user can also define which  fields to show in the results.

And the user can save the view, that is filter + columns + order of columns + sorting, as a personal or shared view.

I do not see the way to get similar experience in Jira Software.

The quick filter cannot be created with an empty value, that does not make sense. Consider this: filter by the Customer Name. None is going to manually add every new customer to the filter, right?

I found the workaround: use Search box on the Issues screen.

But this is not good enough:

I need an ability to filter by more than one custom field, link them with different operators and let users to control the layout of the results EASILY and dynamically. That is during the meeting and without having a Jira admin stand-by.

Any suggestions?
