Summary	0008736: when filtering multiple Projects include project name in other filters eg. Category
Description	When multiple projects are selected in the filters, it would be very helpful if the Categories field could show the project name: eg: [Our Software] 3D Printing [Our Software] General [Our Driver Bundle] 3D Printer Driver [3D Printer Hardware] Widget One [3D Printer Hardware] Gadget Two [3D Printer Hardware] General How to handle duplicate Category names? Config options that activate this project name display and also different code that handles multiple categories of the same name. Or show something like "[Our So..,3D Pri..] General" for 2 projects, and "[<4 projects>] General" for any more than that. So the current filtering behaviour is left untouched.
Tags	No tags attached.

If we select 3 projects in the Advanced Filters page, we still see 100s of target versions, and it's impossible to pick out the versions we need from those 3 projects.
