 Hi Joe,

 Thanks for your feedback.
 You are right, subclassing the post controller was entirely possible and
 solved my use case.

 At first I was looking for a way to alter the default way it works via
 filters, therefor I came up with this proposal for this additional filter.
 In hindsight subclassing the post controller is a good way to solve this.

 Unless you see more merits for this proposed filter, I would be OK with an
 'wontfix' solution for this trac-ticket. Perhaps the documentation (or
 inline docs) could benefit some more on this topic.

 Thanks,
 Ruud
