After some cursory poking, /dm_filter is a hidden type that can be used to manipulate filter instances without using the runtime search operator (:). There is no official reference material for it. It does not descend from datum, cannot be subtyped, and can only be created successfully by a valid call to proc/filter(...). All filter types create the same kind of /dm_filter but with different properties, of which I believe type is the only const.
A contributor on bay tried to use it but checker doesn't know about it. I'm not familiar with the guts of suite, but I think this is all that's necessary?
