In 2013, new functionality was brought in that allows you to pre-filter from the columns currently existing in default view. This works really well when you don’t have a complex query from which to gather data from.

This is meant to expose mappings that are hidden from the user. Meaning they are not available in the normal interface. In our case, we were not able to easily create mappings between opportunity products and quote products.
