Filter Editor - Collections defined using the ManyToManyAlias attribute that represent ends of the many-to-many association are missing in the property list when DataAccessMode = Server or InstantFeedback

[DevExpress Support Team: CLONED FROM T498474: Collection properties are missing in filter editor]
I downloaded the hotfix and it brought back some, but it does not bring back all collection properties.

For instance, I can no longer get to Roles from the filter editor, which is defined a little differently.

[Association, Browsable(false)]
        public IList<UserRole> UserToRoleLinks
        {
            get
            {
                return GetList<UserRole>("UserToRoleLinks");
            }
        }
        [ManyToManyAlias("UserToRoleLinks", "CompoundKey1.Role")]
        public IList<Role> Roles
        {
            get
            {
                return GetList<Role>("Roles");
            }
        }

UPDATED by Dennis (DevExpress Support):
Currently, you can set the PreventServerSideOperationsForNonPersistentMembers property of the ColumnListEditor to false to prevent the issue. Refer to the "I do not need this behavior. How do I disable it? " section of the  UI - Disable server-side operations (sorting, filtering, grouping, field chooser in the filter control, etc.) or provide warnings for non-persistent properties by default ticket for more details.
