#6960 Queries returning Draft Content Items and with more tokens available

[jersiovic]

I developed this issue #6960

[sebastienros]

It's changing the interface, it needs to target a major version -> dev branch

If I understand, you want your query filters to be able to use more tokens that the ones that are available in the request object. I don't see any usage of these tokens, does it mean you currently use the query API from your own module?

I call queries from a custom workflow element that I have no problem to share in another PR if you are interested in.
In the following screenshot you can see how I use a field in the current Content of the workflow that executes the query as parameter for that query:

We named the custom activity that executes a query: "Trigger From a Query" it triggers any signal we want for each content returned by the query we set. An example:

In that case we use that query to get the users to which we have to submit an email sending a signal per user. Then a signal activity catch that signal an send that email. In that way we are able to iterate through all the contents of a query to do an action with each result without needing to program anything, just using workflows.

Is it interesting then? Do I create a new pull request to target dev branch?
