I can see a use case in my current work. We're building a dashboard visualisation for our product.

I'm writing the REST API backend for it - and trying to make that API as easy to easy to use for the front end (inhouse customer) as I can. However, I'm finding that I'm writing a lot of endpoints that are variations on the same data.

We will circle around, identify the common patterns/variations and consolidate a bunch of the code. But something like this, that facilitates sorting, grouping and filtering on the front end, could be useful.
