The logcat window is quite a performance hog if there is no regex applied.

It would be nice if it would be possible to define filters for the call to logcat like it is possible on the adb command line.

Example for a filter that would limit all logoutput to severe, but create exceptions for MyApp to show debug output and Information level for "SomeOtherApp"

adb logcat *:S MyApp:D SomeOtherApp:I

This could be something that could be stored in a workspace settings and maybe have two commands like
View Logcat and View logcat (filtered)
