Ex: Add custom lists of objects

[PeterBaker0]

Scope & Context

We would like to be able to create lists of objects without having to create a view which filters over a value.

Current behavior

Say I want a list which is a saved subset of People. Right now, I have to create some new property over which I can filter, so that this list reflects my selection of People.

Expected behavior

I would like a new type of View which is just a List. This list has a selection of People (or any object type), and can be added to and removed from. This List is shared between users, and in all other ways operates the same as other Views. The List could be filtered, but this filter would not be saved to the List (since the list inclusion/exclusion itself is the filter). The List could be ordered, and this order would be shared between users.

Example:

I want to create a 'campaign email list' which is just a selection of People. I can then export from this list easily, for example. Right now it takes a lot of steps to do this very simple action - i.e. data model-> add property -> add view -> filter by this property -> go back to all people -> modify property -> see this reflected in filtered list. I would prefer the ability to just maintain standalone lists.

Thanks for the suggestion, turning this into a discussion!

@Bonapara no worries! It would be a great feature for us.
