> [1] says:
> bq. The filter parameter uses the same format of url parameters that is used
> in a JIRA search.
> However, it fails to mention that the first & needs to be omitted.
> And does not document what happens if used in conjunction with other forms of
> filter.
> [2] compares the Jira filter with the Maven-style filter.
> However, the Jira filter includes more than the Maven filter, as it can also
> be used to define sorting.
> Indeed it appears that the Jira filter overrids all the Maven filters and the
> sort column names
