Easier "exclude" filters

I'm not having any luck with Glob filters.

Also, just a suggestion.  I get that you have a mixture of Linux / Windows admins.  Me being a windows admin, I'm going to be a bit bias in saying that I find regex style patterns to be overly convoluted, and honestly wish you guys simplified your operating / pattern matching language.  Certainly nothing wrong with offering regex as an option, but its not my go to langue for pattern matching, or its rather a language of last resort that I use.

For example:

I have a group structure that looks like this

Windows Servers\
  Exchange
  SQL
  IIS
  DHCP
  AD

Cisco\
 ESA
WSA
Switch
FW

I want to show all devices in the Windows server, except IIS and I want to show only ESA in Cisco.  Doing something akin to....

Select * from groups where (name like *windows* and not like *IIS*) or (name like *ESA*)  

That's simple SQL language, and IMO far easier to read / understand.  Even if it's not SQL based language, I think working on more friendly (readable) language would be a huge benefit.  Even something more simplistic like 

(like *windows* and notlike *IIS*) or (like *ESA*).  

Maybe even take it a step further and offer multiple query languages that we can pick from.  Sometime regex IS the only language that can get it done.  And while I realize regex more often than not can do what SQL cannot, 99% of the examples I'm showing, don't require the complexity of regex.
