Search whole word button for Advanced Display Filter

The Advanced Display Filter is really not that "advanced" without the basic and obvious feature that is "search whole/exact word only".

Yes, I know it can be done via regex, but come oooon...

... and while we're at it get rid of that pesky ignore case option and use the convenient (?i) syntax

I think the (vast) majority of Studio users never heard anything about regex, despite using it.

I probably missed why one may need a duplicating feature for what they already can easily do...

You probably missed the bit where it says "Yes, I know it can be done via regex"

But you also demonstrated how easy it would be to implement it

Type \b(word)\b for search and check the 'Regular Expression' box. Change the word between the parentheses to search for a different word.
