            Description

            Little language example:
            ((suite = "smoke" | suite = "regression") & process = "booking")

            Groovy closures (http://groovy.codehaus.org/Quick+Start) would be an effective way to construct an alternate grammar.

            It should be a non-default implementation to allow for backwards compatibility.

              We could introduce a prefix-based convention for different language impls. E.g.: "groovy: ((suite = "smoke" | suite = "regression") & process = "booking")".

              This would keep the meta-filter nice and compact, a single string rather than depending on additional settings.

              Description Little language example:
                 ((suite = "smoke" | suite = "regression") & process = "booking")

              It could be that Groovy closures (http://groovy.codehaus.org/Quick+Start) or Rhino (http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/tutorial.html) could be an effective way to construct an alternate grammar.

              Having this as a plugin -DmetaFilterImplementation might allow for backwards compatibility too.
