Allow AND link for keywords in the filter panel
I want to use keywords to find specific images fast and regularly, so using the find dialog and filling out all dropdowns is too slow. I also have a lot of keywords and often want to search for different combinations, so using a smart collection does not help. I want to narrow down my selection of images and therefore need an option to use logical AND when selecting multiple keywords.
I personally never need the default OR link and don't care about where this option will be presented. Possible are the panel menu at the top right of the panel, a button at the bottom of the panel (next to keep filter and clear filter), or global preferences dialog.

Congrats to the Bridge team for adding the AND operator to the keywords filter. The next vital operator to add is NOT, as this will help greatly with pruning hits from the all inclusive AND operation.

I made a suggestion to use the keyword panel as a filter with AND as default. Please vote for it: https://adobebridge.uservoice.com/forums/905323-feature-request/suggestions/44200659-use-keyword-panel-as-a-filter-with-and-operator

I can't stress how much I want/need this feature.
My organization began using Adobe Bridge so we could quickly tag and sort through our hundreds of photos based on subject matter or style - only to find that we have to use predefined Smart collections or a clunky search tool each time.
If it were possible to simply check the keywords in the filter panel to narrow down photos that are of, say, Plants AND Animals AND Portrait Orientation, the system would be perfect for our needs.
