Filtering shall support combining conditions with 'OR'

The filter conditions in DOORS in currently combining the conditions always with the logical 'AND'.
To provide sufficient filter functionality, it must be also possible to combine filter conditions with the logical 'OR'

    DOORS Next v7.1 introduces new options to filters artifacts. Most filters can be combined with new group operators, including matching all, some, or none of the conditions in a group of filters. Filters for the basic attribute data types are supported.

    Please add this capability. It is very important especially for users who have been using Doors Classic which supports this. Doors Next requires similar support.

    This RFE matches a Safran Aircraft Engines requirement (case ID TS001108235) :

    There is no possibility to add conditions on filters.
    Use case :
    For example, I have 2 attributes "Owner" and "Contributor".
    My request is to display artifacts which have "Owner = xxx" OR "Contributor = yyy".

    IBM has determined that this request is likely not to be the delivered in the next release, but the theme of this feature is within our strategy and product roadmap to be delivered in the next two years or two releases. IBM will determine if this request can be included in our plan or scoped out within the next year. Since strategies change in response to customer and business needs, we reserve the right to change our decision during an RFEs lifecycle.
