Great idea and much needed! The % logic is fundamental to flexibility in our reporting and to be able to do this with numbers and dates and avoid massive range searches will lead to increased performance of queries for users that choose to not submit a value

I agree, it enhances user experience and makes the platform that much more productive, effective and efficient. Without it, the functionality if stringent and does not allow flexibility to the user. Thank you.
