Ability to toggle vector layer query

I have come across recent instances where I sometimes want to see a subset of a layer through the use of the query builder. Other times, I want to see all attributes in the layer, but want to be able to conveniently return to the subset view. Of course, you can have the layer on the canvas more than once with the query in one copy and no query in the other, but it would be convenient to be able to toggle the subset/query. Otherwise, you have to clear out the query and hope to not lose your query language.

Perhaps a toggle box can be placed next to or near the "Query Builder" button in the layer property ui to provide this capability? This box would simply turn on or off the subset feature by not running the query for the layer.

I agree this would be an awesome feature to be added, it could even be a nice to have feature to be able to have several queries defined and able to select one to be used by a checkbox next to it something like

[x] None (default)
[] ... Query 1
[] ... Query 2
