Collapsable/Expandable Filter Panes

If we could have collapsible panes for the Detail Filters / Summary Filters / Slicer sections within Queries, we could increase the  size of the Detail Filters section.  Would be even better if you could choose to hide the ones you don't use, within the Options menu. Without this most of the detail filters are hidden and it is impractical.

    Every pane, every panel should be collapsible/resizable everywhere in the product.

    Never have understood why some windows can be resized and others cannot. And why some panels can be increased and others can't - consistency across all products please!
