Description of the feature, modification, idea or suggestion

The idea for a feature is very simple, let just say that we have this process tree:

  • processes before...
  • a.exe
    • b.exe
    • c.exe
      • d.exe
  • processes after...

I want to put in search a.exe and see all it child processes b, c, d. In my case I don't know their names yet, so I can't put anything meaningful in search input other than name of the parent process. One particular usage for that is tracking potentially harmful installers, for example some branded software with drivers for ASUS, Logitech, Lenovo, etc.

I want to write filter for only parents and see what child processes they create. I think it shouldn't be too hard to implement. On the interface you can add it as a new button near other to "keep child processes".

Proposed implementation details (optional)
