Request: when filtering files, allow to select/deselect only them and not their folders #13725

Suppose I got a torrent with various images and video files, but I want only one type of them to be downloaded. Let's say I want to download only the video files.

There are 2 ways that I tried to do it, and I failed for both:

  1. Deselect all folders, and then choose to show "*.mp4" files, and then select all. Sadly this has selected all folders of them, which means that if the folders contain other files, they are included too.
  2. Select all folders, and then choose to show "*.jpg" files, and then deselect them all. Sadly as on previous point, this will de-select the folders too, so if they contain video files, those will be deselected too.

Please when performing these select-all and deselect-all, do it only for what's shown after filtering, and not the folders that contain other stuff.

Or, offer to do it only for files instead of files&folders.
Or, when filtering to show "*.mp4", don't show me the folders of them anyway, let alone select the folders...
