Firstly I love you. Secondly I have two suggestions.
Feats
I would love some filters for feats primarily because of racial feats. If I could filter by
Feats for Ability Scores
Feats for Races
For example when I am checking whether the character I am making has a relevant feat I don't go to the feat page I instead open up the 'Racial Feats' page in Xanathars Guide to everything because its much easier to read.
Spell Filter for better class organisation.
My primary pet peeve with the spell filters is the buttons for class spells.
I would prefer to always have to press the filter button before a class is selected.
I would always really like to be able to double press buttons to exclude a class.
This would work in the same way you can 'X select' non-material spells. Double pressing buttons to exclude classed would let you find spells that are say 'Wizard class only' very easily. I think it would be a really handy way to filter spells.
For example: 'I'm wondering what spells I can cast with Wish that my Wizard can not cast otherwise' 'I'm wondering what spells the wizard and cleric in my party don't have that I could get as a bard or druid'
Thankyou.
P.S. While I have you the 'find everything' is amazing so far. Adding more ways to customize that would also be wonderful. I LOVE SEARCH TOOLS. I LOVE YOU.
They could just merge all homebrew with all official content and have the homebrew filter on by default. That way, nobody gets 'confused' by the mixing but if you know you want a homebrew thing, then you just uncheck the filter.

So, since D&D Beyond has implemented the filter for feats, can we pull this into the character builder? Basically, add a "Meet Prerequisites" checkbox when choosing feats similar to the "Proficient" checkbox when choosing equipment.

So, it looks like this feature request is in development!
Not sure if this is considered a zombie yet... But I would love to hear if any of this is still in the works.
I use dndbeyond.com/feats fairly regularly and a couple of additional filters (mainly an option for NO racial feats) would be amazing.
If it's also possible to add developmental or quasi-official feats (i.e. UA / Racial Expanded Feats) with some other filter or tag that would be awesome as well. (Yes I am aware of homebrew, however the perceived legitimacy of those feats is much lower as they haven't been endorsed or playtested.)
Thanks!

I'd like to take Obliza's idea a bit further and would like to see search options with filters added for all types of homebrew creations.
On the feat filters, i would add a prerequisite and a class based filter.
Having a search option + filters would be nice with homebrew sub-classes, races and backgrounds.
Maybe filters as such :
Sub-classes : requirements, based on which class etc.
Races : base stat bonus, racial types (i.e. humanoid, draconian) etc
Backgrounds : Racial, class etc.
I like to create stuff, and always appreciate any feedback given to help improve the things i make.

Oh and the other thing is if you could add a spell filter so you can see spells that consume materials / have a gold cost that would be great too.
