Filtering log tailed data

[spmp]

Filtering is awesome! But it could use some tweaks
I have a fair bit of data where the majority is between 0 and 1 with a small proportion up to 10e6 etc.
In this case the filtering is of little use as the slider takes out very few points then all the points due to the auto scaling between min and max. In this way I can never zoom in on the region of interest.
Some possible remedies are

1. A log scale filter, filter(column:min:max,log) or filter(column:log:min:max)
2. A linear filter as now, but with sticky ends and a range, i.e to filter between 0 and 1 and display 0 to 2: filter(column:0:2:[0,1]) of filter(column:0:2:0:1). By sticky ends I mean that there is a region at each end where teh filtereing at that end is not applied, i.e if at the far right there is no max, despite the filter being set to filter from 0-2

Filtering also needs a configurable, or at least greater number of steps.

And unrelated, how can we force the placement of filters below the chart and align the start of the slider bars?
