Description

We have many powerful callback functions to help user to build amazing application/services. The most of functions are declared as IA.LimitedPrivate excluding the filters. As i see it, the IA.LimitedPrivate will make the improvement of filter more flexible. Also, we can introduce more server-side components to filters. In conclusion, we should consider adding the limited private level for filter.
