Can we add a symbol kind filter to Symbols::loadItems?

The Symbols class implements the CocList symbols command. It queries the server for all symbols that match a query string and gets an array back of SymbolInformations. loadItems then transforms the SymbolInformation to a displayable format. This code is used:

    for (let s of symbols) {
      let kind = getSymbolKind(s.kind)
      let file = URI.parse(s.location.uri).fsPath
      if (isParentFolder(workspace.cwd, file)) {
        file = path.relative(workspace.cwd, file)
      }
      items.push({
        label: `${s.name} [${kind}]\t${file}`,
        filterText: `${s.name}`,
        location: s.location,
        data: { original: s, kind: s.kind, file, score: score(input, s.name) }
      })
    }

I think it would be a nice feature to offer

let kind = getSymbolKind(s.kind)
if (context.options.matchkind !== kind) {
    continue;
}

so that the user could do CocList symbols --kind=class etc.

Use :CocList -I symbols -kind class

Thank you!

I understand that :CocList -I symbols -kind [method, function] is not possible -- is there a way to somehow join outputs of
:CocList -I symbols -kind method and :CocList -I symbols -kind function and search both at the same time?
