SOME BACKGROUND:

For the most part, we greatly encourage small logically related commits in our Gerrit instance.  Sometimes during a refactor large changesets are unavoidable.  Recently a member of our team modified nearly 5k files (deleted mostly, with less than a dozen files with modifications).  We hilariously encountered this bug: https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3256

FEATURE REQUEST:

For large commits, it would be nice to be able filter the file list for review by what type of modify it is or path.  e.g.

* Only show deleted files (modify type D).  Inclusion filter.
* Only show modified files (modify type M).  Inclusion filter.
* Only show files underneath a specific path.  Inclusion filter.
* Omit a specific path from the view.  Exclusion filter.

It would also be nice to see the number of files changed at the bottom of the summary next to the total lines deleted or added.

Please tell me your thoughts.
