  Hi David, I personally like the minimalist approach of the present windows effect (it is in fact my main windows switching tool and the main reason I am not able to migrate to other window managers), and think that having an icon or explicit indicator about the filtering does not really help the user to understand what's going on.
  
  As soon as one types - accidentally or not - , it gets obvious what's going on in the same way, the windows title overlay has no information indicating that that string is the windows title. It is just obvious (or it should be :-)).
  
  Removing the  "Filter" label also makes the visual way cleaner and I believe more efficient for those who rely on it (well, I can tell by myself :-)).
  
  Cheers,
  Leandro
