Title:
See who's in a particular custom filter when posting

Area:
posting

Summary:
When locking a post to custom access filters, have some way of clicking on the name of a custom filter to see exactly who's in it.

Description:
If it's been a long time since I've set up an access filter, I don't necessarily know exactly who I put in it. Furthermore, if I'm using a filter I don't use often, the list of people who belong in it might have changed. For instance, I might be locking a post to people I know who live in the same town as me, and someone on my access list has moved to town who lived elsewhere the last time I used the filter.

Yesterday, I absent-mindedly clicked on a filter name, hoping to open up a list of people in it. When it didn't happen, I realized that perhaps it could.

My thought would be that clicking on a filter name should open up a new window which contained the "Manage Filters" page. Ideally, it should have the filter I clicked on selected, but I don't know enough about the code to know if that's feasible.

Alternatively, perhaps there could simply be a link to "Manage Filters" at the top of the custom filter checkbox section.
