Right, the file filter parameter is really only effective for
determining what changes Gerrit E-mails you about, or which ones
should be incorporated into your list of watched changes. It's not
available for general search queries (I suspect this was a
compromise made for efficiency reasons since the queries could be
pretty intense the way file information is stored in the underlying
database).

Note, we're still running Gerrit 2.4 at the moment, so once we
transition to 2.8 or 2.9 the flexibility in the search interface may
increase significantly (I've heard it gives you the ability to
bookmark various searches as custom dashboard views, but not sure
what other search improvements may be added there).
