It would be great if there were the ability to add and remove entities when creating various helpers with Include and or Reject Filters.
For example I’d like a minimum helper for battery entities based on battery percentage. I can create a helper sensor and list each entity but now I must maintain this list. What I would like to be able to do is use a battery class, or a regex filter to include or exclude as needed.
This would allow these helpers to be created where if a new entity is created that fits the include, in this case a battery, it is automatically included. If I don’t want a particular entity or set of entities I can exclude them again based on a regex, class, or individually. For example I want all Zigbee battery devices but not mobile phones, or cameras, etc. battery levels.
When the GUI is being used display a list the entities being selected or rejected to ensure the results are as expected.
