It would be great if the query widget in WebApp Builder allowed the end users to select multiple results from a single expression and field (think the "IN" expression in SQL).  For example, if the user is trying to query chemical data and there are dozens of different compounds in a single field of "Chemical Name", it would be nice if the user could select a variety of compounds with little check boxes.

Very useful tool!! We have big and complex datasets to be filtered and queried. Other good thing to have would be the different variables selectable as the "Data Slicers" very popular in excel (very interact, visual and smart way to select the filters you want to apply)
