Incubator-superset: Filter Box cannot be used only with time range, shows error

[bipinsoniguavus]

When filter box is open in explore mode, then there is an error coming in the right hand side view. Then, add one more filters from select dropdown, the error will get vanished.

Expected results

When filter box is open in explore mode, then there should be no error and time range filters can be added by default without any other mandate filters

Actual results

When filter box is open in explore mode, then there is an error coming in the right hand side view. Adding one more filters from select dropdown, will remove the error

+1 on branch master , it should be a hint to add a filter

also there is a frontend problem: error messages on the right can not be seen fully (no scroll bar)

There's a workaround (in master) to get charts working until this bug is fixed, if you click on the + button under "Filters" on your filter box and then remove the control box that pops up that says "N/A" your chart should work even without adding additional filters. Once you do this save your filter chart and it should work.

It seems that this will work if you have "filter_configs":[] in form_data but existing slices don't have that param. I originally set this as a P1 but it could probably be a P2.

cc: @mistercrunch looks like an issue related to the filters change
