one additional comment to the ux:

the match field could use a bit of improvement:

the docs describe the current fields, but for users that
don't deep dive into the docs first it may be confusing having
a simple text input field for that

at least when the type is 'exact' we could offer a
dropdown for the 'type' value (can still be editable)

in the mid/long term i think having a backend generated list
of those somehow would make sense (i.e. some kind
of 'registering' and an endpoint that lists the types,
or other metadata) but i think that was planned by you anyway
(or something along those lines?)

also it would be good to have a link to the docs on the
filter edit panel to the relevant section
(e.g. for such things as the types/metadata/etc.)
