Proposal
- Add support for OR between values of a given filterable key within the filter bar.

Constraints

OR
is limited to individual types of parametersassignee = me OR you AND label = foo OR bar
, notassignee = me OR label = foo
UI Prototype
To navigate:
- Click on filter bar (launches primary options menu)
- Select Assignee

- Click on Assignees list to close
- Click filter bar again to launch primary options menu again for a new top level selection
