Comment 3 for bug 1116665

This would be even better if it could be done ala Twicca (an Android client) where you can filter people, words or client apps.

Further use cases:

 * Filter specific words to try to avoid mention about certain events (e.g. big sporting events that you're not going to watch until later)
 * Filter specific words to remove the drivel from someone's feed (e.g. an auto-tweeting feed that keeps posting links from a site that you can't stand the editorial quality on, but the other tweets can be useful)
 * Filter specific client apps that only generate junk tweets (e.g. ignoring tweets from people who insist on using paper.li, but also post interesting stuff)
