Grid Excel Style Filtering

[gibonz]

Current column filtering implementation in the grid is not user friendly, since it requires clicking on "(Select All)" and then clicking on each entry in the dropdown.
New feature with a filter bar below columns' headers was not meet with appreciation from the client either, since by default filter type is set to "Equals", user pointed that constant changes to "Contains" would be cumbersome.

Instead Excel like filtering should be implemented, it was already pointed out some time ago on Your forum:

Also this feature is already implemented in Angular version of the grid:

Our users are used to Excel since they are using it daily, making the grid work like Excel would make their work easier.
