I'm partial to the colored checkboxes too.

We'd need to represent the filtered time somehow, at least in the frame graph. A hollow segment could be added to the top of the frame to account for filtered tasks.

I agree with keeping all filtering in the sidebar. How about one of the following:

a) Making the doughnut legend item keys checkboxes
b) Adding a button (funnel icon) to the left of the filter text box. Button brings up popup menu described above.

I like a) because it's simple, and we get colored checkboxes. I like b) because it keeps all filtering UI together in one place.
