 /* todos
+- add manual trigger button for preview (or find better way to avoid reports constantly popping up)
+- cache apply query rests (e.g. only on button press)
+- add way for reports to contain multiple filter
+- add hover/tooltip for filters showing the full object (e.g. tmpFb...)
 - add manual filter entry
 - finish support apply mode
-- cache apply query rests (e.g. only on button press)
 - disallow esc to close?
+- add icons for report,... similar to tree-view in dlt-logs
