Retain the extra bracket on the advanced search when saving a filter

      At the moment, when making a filter using the Advanced Search, the saved filter will remove the extra bracket if it's not needed. For example, let say the filter is originally:

      (Project = DEMO AND (status = Open OR Assignee = "admin"))
      

      The above filter will be saved as:

      Project = DEMO AND (status = Open OR Assignee = "admin")
      

      There is a reason why a user intentionally adds the additional bracket on the query, so that future changes on the JQL query will be easier.

      Another Example, such as complex JQL query is:
      Before the filter is saved:

      After the query is saved into a filter:
