In visualization, it is possible to hard code known values into filters  
which then work as the names for the key or column. This is great but look  
ugly if your filter is a wildcard or regex, which then becomes your key or  
column header. Not wanting to quote the devil but splunk allows the AS  
function in the string to accomplish this very easily.

Is there any built in (or plan to build in a ) feature, including JSON  
input, where you can rename that filter?

Also, after defining a number of known values in filters this leaves the  
visualization wide open for omission of "none of the above", without  
writing an extensive filter than includes all of the ones you have defined.  
Is there a shortcut for this not documented yet?
