TL;DR

One filter to chop them all

What ?

The deconstruction planner has 20 different filters for trees. I understand that this is because every type of tree is a different type of entity, but I think that there should also be the possibility to have a single filter for all trees.

Why ?

Well if I have build something just a little to close to trees I want to remove them without damaging my stuff. So no grenade or shotgun. I haven't made poison capsules yet(nor likely to ever will) and I have a personal roboport. Logical solution would be to use the deconstruction planner and dropping all wood in a chest that can be destroyed(lets face it, when will you need wood at that point). It is a bit of work to get all 20 trees selected(I believe I have even selected some double)

There's a check box for "Trees and rocks only" that should do what you want.
