Provide a views filter for node update access [#2854963]

It would be incredibly useful to be able to make a view such as admin/content with the ability to show only nodes that the user can update. With the core admin/content page, you have a giant list of nodes you can view, but cannot edit.

This functionality would add a View filter to narrow a listing of content down to only what the user can edit.

We're using this in a project within a custom module at the moment, just figured it would be useful.

While I agree that this would be a great functionality to have, I have to play the devil's advocate here: Would this not better be a core feature? Where you would be able to set the query metadata 'op' under Advance > Query options to specify that you're building a view of 'update' nodes?

I agree that this could be in core for normal nodes as well. The patch I have here has some group specific stuff in it though with the 'gid', so even though a core version of this would be cool, wouldn't the group implementation still be necessary? I guess I don't know enough about why there's a core "View" version of this filter and no update one.

Group implements the node access system (grants/access records). That system gets added automatically to views by core. So if we provide the functionality in core, Group will benefit from it automatically.
