Hi there
Currently as far as I know that is not possible.
The reason being is that when you select an item on a filter, it will always keep what that item name is.
For Example if I select "Blue" as an item on filter, it will always expect the value to be blue.
What possibly might work, is if you have a filter called "Current User" and you have some kind of way to get the current user's login details and default that to "Current User" that might work.
