Why doesn't ID have a blur filter?
My suggestion for ID is it should have a blur filter along with all the other filters available. it seems it has everything but blur. I use the gradient blur filter all the time for layouts and it's a time saver, so I would love a gaussian blur to also be there so I don't have to go back and forth from ID and PSD.

I second your suggestion. Yesterday, I was pondering a design. The design solution requires a Gaussian blur. Today, I attempted to solve it. I quickly discovered that it cannot be accomplished inside of InDesign. And moving outside of InDesign entails a low productivity workaround.

InDesign doesn’t have any filters. It certainly has no need for a blur filter.
