Code:
formats:"=PDF" or authors:"=Bill Bloggs"
But what I really want is
Code:
formats:"=PDF" and authors:"=Bill Bloggs"
Is there a way to 'and' search terms together via clicking things in the Tag Browser? Currently one has to overtype the 'or' with an 'and' in the Search Bar. Or use the Advanced Search Title/Author/Series Tab where its the reverse, if I select Author "Bill Bloggs" with formats "PDF" I get

Code:
author:"Bill Bloggs" and formats:"PDF"
Would it be possible to give the user some control over whether search terms are ANDed or ORed in the Tag Browser and Advanced Search Title/Author/Series Tab?

For example in the Tag Browser ctrl/Click could OR and shift/click could AND Search Terms - or Alt/Click could AND whilst and leaving both Shift and Control with OR to provide backwards compatibility.

The Advanced Search would probably need extra controls to toggle AND/OR between fields

Tag Browser: At the bottom: Alter...: Match type
