Remove filler words from specific speaker

Yes please I just suggested this to the support team. I want to be able to remove filler words for just a particular speaker. We often have one speaker who uses 'um' a lot and in a really noticeable way, but I dont want to remove ALL ups as they sound fine on the occasions that the other speaker says them.

Gareth Evans: This exactly. Under the "filter filler words" window it would be really helpful to also filter by "speaker." Please see the window attached.
It would be possible to isolate the person who said a filler word in a distracting manner and either remove the repetitive filler word all at once, or review that speaker's repetitive filler word manually, while also leaving alone everyone else's use of that word.
That really would be a huge timesaver in my workflow at least. I love the feature in general, thank you.

Nice idea. I'll add a vote.
I'm looking for a way to use the Remove Filter words using delete and while selecting the replace gap clip. This tool is handy, but I prefer the ignore tool because it is visual. I just wish we had more options via the keyboard shortcuts and also a way to see the edits visually. One for remove from audio and keep video (replace with gap clip) and another for ignore audio and video (which shortens the timeline)
Does anybody know how to remove an individual filler word without searching the entire document with the find tool and activating these special replace gap clip options?
I think I would like to
1) use ctrl+backspace (ignore) to remove audio and video
2) use shift+backspace(delete)
3) use alt+backspace(delete and replace with gap clip)
I understand all gap clips have an automatic room tone added to them.
Today to accomplish a "remove filler word" from a clip with video seems to only be possible two ways:
1) using the find/replace panel with the option turned on to replace with gap clip
2) opening the sequence by using A + double click on the audio wave form, separating the audio, using R andhighlighting the area to replace and then using backspace (delete).
But this doesn't work very nice visually like the ignore feature. I don't see a way to undo just that edit, etc. If we want the product to really work like a word processor, then all the edits need to show in the text as some kind of object and they need to be available to add back into the autio/video if removed.
