I think it would be a convenience for site administrators to be able to filter the content with ajax instead of a full page refresh to speed things up. This way they could see the form elements and buttons update/change instantly instead of having to rely on 'noticing' them.

Also, I remember when I started with Drupal and I thought the content filter was the most confusing thing. Attached is a quick screenshot of what would make more sense to me.

I hopey dis helpey

This sounds a lot like what the Views2 team is planning to do. I can't seem to find a link to them though.

Isn't this possible with the Dynamic Load module that is apart of the javascript tools addon module?

Version: 7.x-dev » 8.x-dev
Component: usability » base system

Changing to 8.x since it didn't get into 7. If you think this has been dealt with some other way, or want to retire the request, please set it appropriately.
