"Duration" category in "Presentation"

Hello,
would it be possible to add "Duration" category to Presentation for Videos?
I mean:
The categories like Titles, Movies, Series, Last Viewed, Genres, User Ratings, etc, there would be a New category: Video Duration
It would be very useful for me, as I often select movies based on my "available" time, I often have limited time only, and I loose many minutes while searching for any "shorter" movies, (~90 mins). Now if I want to know the duration of a movie, I have to Play it, and the initial starting (buffering) takes pretty long time, just to find out, that it is again a 3 hours movie...so I have to try something else.

With this new feature, I would be able to browse movies based on movie length, for example, there may be categories like:
0-60 mins, 61-90 mins, 91-120 mins, etc...
where I would see only movies which have the given duration.

Thank you in advance. Kind regards,
Zoltan

Now that this feature has been implemented is there any way to make more sub-categories in "Duration"? Now there is only 4 and they are divided very coarsely. I would like to have separate categories spaced 10 minutes from each other like 60-70, 70-80, 80-90 minutes and so on. Can I do this by editing something somewhere?

No it's hardcoded.

The 4 already seem a lot, tbh. I'd argue most people will look for something less than 90 min most of the time.
