OK, so it's not that new - it was added in 6.1 :-)

filter now allows you to specify a "target container", e.g.

  filter myVar with "*.livecode"  into tStacks


Would it be a reasonable enhancement request to allow not just "into", but also "after" and "before" ?

e.g.

 put files() into t

 filter t with "*.jpg" into tFiles

 filter t with "*.jpeg" after tFiles

etc.

btw - if you are hopeful and just try the "after variant", it doesn't give you an error - it simply ignores the "after targetContainer" part, and filters the source container. Seems to me that's a bug - anyone agree and I'll enter it as such ?
