Hi
I was wondering whether it is possible to add a minimum length for the query string in the global search input field - e.g. the search would only be fired when 3 chars has been entered.
I am using serverside filtering on a large dataset using sAjaxSource. Hence, this would save some get requests and reduce the server load.

Greetings,
Thomas
