Views exposed forms
The top of a view, in six combinations: a header on its own, exposed filters on their own, exposed sorts on their own, all of it at once with the reset and pager controls, grouped filters, and the sort links a table style puts in its header cells. Every variation is a real view, built in memory and never saved, listing the same dummy people. Nothing is queried, so applying a filter changes nothing, but the widgets come back in the state they were submitted in -- and they share the query string, so applying one is visible in the others that expose the same identifier.
Header, no exposed form
Two header areas, a custom text and a result summary, above a view with nothing exposed. The header is wrapped on its own, so it is themed whether or not an exposed form follows it.
Exposed filters, no header
One filter per widget the core handlers build: a textfield from a string filter, a select from a boolean filter, and a date filter with its operator exposed, so the operator select and the value are rendered as a pair.
Exposed sorts, no filters
The "Sort by" and "Order" selects the exposed form plugin appends when sorts are exposed. They are ordinary selects, but they are the only widgets in the form, so the exposed form has to hold up with no filter beside them.
Header, filters, sorts, reset and pager controls
Everything at once, and the widest the exposed form ever gets: filters, the sort selects, the exposed items per page and offset the pager adds, the Apply button and the Reset button. The Reset button only appears once a filter has been applied, so the view is rendered with one.
Grouped filters
A grouped filter replaces the widget of a filter with a list of named combinations of an operator and a value. The same filter is exposed twice, once as radio buttons and once as a select, since a group is rendered either way.
Sortable table headers
The other kind of sort in a view: the table style turns the header cell of a sortable column into a link, and marks the column being sorted with an "is-active" class and a sort indicator.
