Summary: Should there be a field number filter?
Description: One of the more frequently voiced requests had been being able to search for a collector name (present) and the field number. I lost track of the discussion - has this been not added to the filters consciously?

Comment: We support now RECORD NUMBER which is the number given to an occurrence in the field. dwc:fieldNumber is the number given to a certain recording "Event" and usually confused with recordNumber. So I think we can close this and say its supported?

Comment: Agreed. Given your comment, you should probably update POR-1721 also. In this issue, Andrea has proposed we can use collector name + field number to find duplicate records. I imagine she is also referring to record number, and not field number?
