add wildcard field search box to Dashboard filters and filter drop downs

[retailguy]

Need ability to place a filter box on a dashboard that allows wildcard text search of a defined text field. e.g. product description, type 'coca' and get all items with coca in description, then select one or multiple items. Filter drop downs instead of slicer boxes would provide more space for charts. this idea is addition functionality to one already posted http://support.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi/suggestions/6674820-global-filter-in-dashboards

Need the same functionality for slicers.

...or even just allow the standard '*' and '?' wildcards within the existing search box that Slicers/Filters have.

I propose those wildcards: Sale !Sales for Sale but not Sales (! instead -) "Sale" for exact whole word Sale xxx* for starting with xxx *xxx for ending with xxx *xxx*yyy* for containing xxx and yyy (no matter in what order) x?y for xay, xby, x1y, x2y, .... but not xaby x#y for x1y, x2y, .... x&y for xay, xby, ....
