Requests to the Cockpit /page APIs often return a very large results as there's
many keys and values that are rarely used. Adding an easy way to remove them would reduce the payload size, transfer time and processing. Can I suggest that a single/simple filter is added to remove the following fields (aka the “underscore_keys”):
_hash
_created
_modified
_cby
_mby
_state
_id
_meta
_pid
_o
many more?
The filter could also remove the “image meta data” (as it’s also not often used). This would remove the following image child fields:
type (the mime contains almost duplicate data)
title (often this is just the filename)
size
colors
folder
Obviously calling the new filter combined with an explicit filter:{colors:1,_state:1} would re-add those key/values.
