Console has hidden items via filters that I can't remove

Reported by remysh...@gmail.com, May 5 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3090.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Have a page that generates messages or errors
2. Right click on filename that triggers error and "Filter -> Hide messages from foo.js"
3. Reload page
4. Now filtering out messages, but no (obvious) way to bring messages back:

What is the expected behavior?
I have some UI component to remove the filter. I thought I used to be able to click on "2 items hidden by filters" to remove them.

What went wrong?
No way to remove filter through UI.

I have found a workaround now, if I trigger a *new* error (via console `throw new Error()`), then right click on the vm source, and select "Filter" - I'm able to then *remove* other filters. 

This was *very* hidden though.

Did this work before? Yes

Thanks for the report.  The workaround is very hidden, and we're thinking of better ways.  Here's one: Right click > Hide messages from 'X.js' could instead modify the text filter bar and prepend '-url:X.js', which would be more visible.  That way, users should be able to easily clear hidden url filters by clearing the text input bar.  Would that work for you?

On Chrome Canary, a change landed to make this more transparent.  Instead of adding a hidden filter, the context menu now just adds a text filter to the filter input bar.
