Is there a way to customize the filtering options for a field? Particularly in my case, I want to switch from filtering some columns by their specific values and use an ascending or descending approach instead. This is easy with a desktop view since the column headers are visible and you can simply sort ascending or descending. However, for a mobile view, you can only access the filters using the Filter icon which offers no way of sorting ascending/descending. It only allows you to sort the column by the specific values it contains.
Expected Behavior
I expect that I can customize the filter for a particular field to have just two options; specifically, ascending and descending. I think this would be useful if you have a large set of records and sorting by one name field is not exactly what you want to do. This is not a problem on a desktop view. However, on a mobile view, the filter is the only way of filtering the data since the mobile view lacks the option to filter the columns using their headers like with the desktop view.
Current Behavior
I think the filter should have an option per column to allow for sorting ascending or descending or by the values themselves as is currently the case.
