Hi,

Why would you want different actions to run in different phases? Do you
have any good user case?

I would guess that the need arise very seldom.

In that case I think we can split the filter into two filters instead.

Adding granularity to what we can control, also makes the possibilities
for errors and mistakes much greater...
