I think the split would be good in the long term, but please make the links
more obvious somehow in the filter.rst, since a bunch of posts on the web
link back to that file. The folks who will be reading the revamped filter.rst
would need a very obvious way to navigate to new pages.

In terms of followups and cleanup... please share what you have in mind.
