Hello, I'm customizing the admin site, and I've run into an issue I
cannot find the solution to. I'm trying to create a new button on the
change_list page that, when pressed, runs a particular script with
input values dependent on the filters that are currently applied to
that change_list page.

Specifically, the button is supposed to be a "Synchronize Selection"
button, which synchronizes the current change_list data with
information scraped from a different website. (I don't want to update
the entire DB, just whatever the user is currently viewing).

To do this, I am thinking I should submit a post request to some page
on my site and pass it the current filter information. I can then run
the scraping script with the filter information as inputs.

Two questions:
1) How do I access this filter information? For example, if I have a
boolean filter called "Synchronized Recently", how do I know if the
filter is set to show "All", "Yes", or "No"?
2) Does this seem like a reasonable approach?

Thanks a lot for the help.
