@vmariani - why this is not extending an existing filter with added functionality?

[vmariani]

We tried to use PythiaDauFilter and PythiaFilter but in our use case we need the link between mother-daugther-nephew that combining the two filters separetely doesn't work.

[davidlange6]

@vmariani - yes, I understand that you did not have the needed functionality with the existing filters.

But could you not simply extend the functionality of one of them to meet your needs? (and not introducing a completely new filter)

[vmariani]

I can't extend the functionality of one of the existing filters because
the requests we need are quite different.
