[Feature Request] Keyword option for armor appropriate to current class

What version(s) of WoW are you using?

Retail

What problem are you experiencing that led to you asking for this feature?

Currently, all characters use the same view/categories/etc. (which I prefer, as I don't have to tweak multiple profiles to maintain consistency). But, if I want to filter cloth on a cloth-wearer, or plate on a plate-wearer, currently (AFAIK) I have to create filters for each armor type (which also means I can't put any of those categories in my trash grouping). It would be nice if there was a keyword option that would automatically match to the current character's appropriate armor type, with !not also being available. This would only need to apply to the basic armor slots and cloth/leather/mail/plate.

Example uses (in combination with other keywords when necessary):

  • More easily finding WuE gear in my warbank that is appropriate for the current class. Or conversely, the stuff that's not appropriate for current class to transfer to the warbank.
  • Filtering out soulbound but not appropriate armor types for more easily vendoring.

(If there's some way to do this currently that I don't know of, I'd be glad to hear it.)

What solution would you like?

I think a keyword would be ideal, so it could be combined with other keywords as desired. My assumption is this would be a custom keyword based on the current character class. I don't know if this is compatible in any way with the existing keyword system (understandable if not, but I hope it is).

Any alternatives you can think of?

A more complicated version would be some sort of conditional statement support in the category queries, but that seems like a step too far and further complexity (and room for error).

Anything else?

Is this to identify gear for upgrades, or something else?

It helps in categorizing irrelevant and relevant gear both, and allows the same category to be used across multiple characters with different armor types, since the settings and categories are account-wide. I'm trying to avoid having separate categories for each armor type, as irrelevant armor types would be grouped with my "warbank or trash" categories, while relevant would be grouped elsewhere, and the addon doesn't allow adjusting which is which on a per-character basis currently. usable isn't sufficient, as leather wearers can technically equip cloth, etc.

As a reference, ArkInventory has similar functions, wearable and unwearable (which also account for lower level armor proficiencies in classic). That unwearable function is distinct from not wearable also.

Added as #my class

Did this actually go through? I don't see a commit implementing it nor does it seem to work in-game.

Its a part of Syndicator, so update that if its not working.
