If I switch to pkg repl mode (`]`) is there a way to filter the `status` list of added packages?

For example, I might want to know which version of package X I’m using in this environment but the `status` list is really long.

I guess one way to do it is `using Pkg; Pkg.installed()["NameOfPackage"]`. But I’d love to do it in the pkg repl mode.

There is a feature request for `pkg> status X` here: [https://github.com/JuliaLang/Pkg.jl/issues/575](https://github.com/JuliaLang/Pkg.jl/issues/575). Should be simple to implement if you want give it a go.
