+When the Filter Form is used to control a dataList:
+
+1. Ensure that Filter options update when entries are added/modified:
+{{{
+filter_form = S3FilterForm(...
+                           _id = "%s-filter-form" % list_id,
+                           )
+}}}
+
+2. Ensure that when individual datalist entries are ajax reloaded they are not filtered out due to not having the correct list_id:
+{{{
+ajax_vars = {"list_id": list_id,
+            }
+filter_form = S3FilterForm(...
+                           url = URL(c=module, f=resource, args="datalist",
+                                     vars=ajax_vars, extension="dl"),
+                           )
+}}}
