Improve filtering of Pending Changes View in EWM 7

Our team uses RTC/EWM for our software change management. We have since many years a well established procedure for delivering changes for our 200+ developers. The procedure is based on using the Pending Changes View in RTC 4. 5, and 6 (in RAD).
Because of the changed filtering logic in EWM 7, we can not update our clients and will be forced to stay on version 6.
For us it seems strange that IBM suddenly change the behavior of the "Pending Changes View" in a way that makes it difficult to distinguish between non-loaded modules and real changes in code.

We request a new filter option to have the Pending Changes View, filtered in the same way as in RTC4, RTC5 and RTC6.

Alternatively, revert the the changed filtering logic back to how it worked in RTC4, 5 and 6.

    - The EWM RFE Review board looked at this and decided to keep it on the Backlog as an uncommitted candidate for a future release.

    Hello

    What means the status "Not under consideration"? Is it rejected?

    Regarding the Guest Comment:
    As I described in my 'Idea', we request a way to filter the contents of the Pending Changes view in the same way as it was filtered RTC 4, 5 and 6.
    Please contact me directly if you need additional information.

    Regards
    /Björn

    The EWM team additional information is there any specific filter option you would like filtered the same way like in a previous version. Pl. share specific information of the filter options and RTC version that you want the options to match.
