I did figure this out and meant to follow up. As far as documentation, in the infodoc under "7.5.3 Capturing column view", we have this: ‘:match’ When set to a string, use this as a tags/property match filter to select only a subset of the headlines in the scope set by the ‘:id’ parameter. And, under "8.4.2 The clock table": ‘:match’ A tags match to select entries that should contribute. See *note Matching tags and properties:: for the match syntax. I'm looking through "11.3.3 Matching tags and properties" and the only reference there to double-quotes is this: • If the comparison value is enclosed in double-quotes, a string comparison is done, and the same operators are allowed. and • If the comparison value is enclosed in double-quotes _and_ angular brackets (like ‘DEADLINE<="<2008-12-24 18:30>"’), both values are assumed to be date/time specifications in the standard Org way, and the comparison is done accordingly. Valid values also include ‘"<now>"’ for now (including time), ‘"<today>"’, and ‘"<tomorrow>"’ for these days at 0:00 hours, i.e., without a time specification. You can also use strings like ‘"<+5d>"’ or ‘"<-2m>"’ with units ‘d’, ‘w’, ‘m’, and ‘y’ for day, week, month, and year, respectively. So, I think there is a lack of clarity in the documentation. -- http://hexmode.com/ Don't ask me who's influenced me.
