Also, today I discovered that the "filter" parameter on some of the node list macros (i.e. "children_list") actually takes a perfectly normal string with a special syntax. Two of the binary filters (pinned_filter and no_pinned_or_subapps_filter) just output these values:

(pin is null or is_app = 'f' or is_app is null)
pin is not null

In theory, this allows one to create an "pinned_filter" like "pin is null", which has its uses.

Is this filter syntax stable/frozen, or is it an internal thing subject to frequent change? (IOW is it safe to use?)
