As a jira admin asked to rename a custom field, I want to know which filters contain the custom field, so I know which ones to update

      I understand that JRA-38795 has rejected automatically updating filters when a custom field is renamed.

      However if the query is stored as a string it would be possible to search these strings for any that contain the name of the custom field.

      This data could then be displayed to the administrator on the 'confirmation screen'.

      Displaying the ID/name of the filters and the name of the owner would give the administrator a chance to pro-actively notify the owners of the filters that they will need to update their filters.
