@@ -33,7 +33,22 @@ Upon user selecting a filter to use the list query string has the regular paging
     - If list not found then it will return a 404 instead of the list    
     - server loads the filter, generates the sql based on the stored filter, adds the sort by and offset / page, runs the query and then returns the data as json collection to the client
 
-NOTE: determined it would be too much trouble for too little gain to validate that the fields specified in the filter actually exist for that object
+--------------------------------------------------------
+NOTES ABOUT WHY I DID THE FILTEROPTIONS LIKE I DID:
+//Need a collection of fields and types and locale keys for
+    //  - Client fetching filteroptions via list class
+    //      - Just a static list of items localized and sent to the client
+    //  - DataFilter validation via list class
+    //      - static list of items to compare against
+    //  - ToSql from DataFilter validation and query building via list class
+    //      - Static list of filter options so that it can build sql fragment (needs to know type, possibly the field name [or that is inferred probably])
+    //      - Ideally each list object will have it's own chunk of code to handle it's shit with tosql just making the fragments of sql like in v7
+    //      - Again, a static list of items to check against
+
+
+    //Where to store that?
+    //all cases are via list class so really the whole thing is self contained and no need for an interface at all
