If you're going to start programming, maybe consider the idea of having the
user interaction result in the definition of a view, rather than filtering
the data after it's received on the client.  That way all the filtering
will happen on the back end, which should improve the performance for your
users, and the views can be shared between users (instead of needing to
share SQL directly).
