Sorry, I was away for a couple of days. Many thanks for your proposition which really works fine. Still, would it be difficult to implement ``evaluating match before it gets used''? My user needs to define in his files a great number of _multi-value_ property keys. He also requires for an occur-tree a horribly complicated regular expression comprising a simple interactive character string. I understand now that the latter could equally be accomplished with the org-occur function the same way you've proposed for the org-match-sparse-tree function, couldn't it? Yes, it can! I've just tested the following function: (defun my-occur (match) (interactive "s") (org-occur (concat "[:]" match "[:]"))) Great, it works.
But I still think it could be advantageous to do the whole lot within the org-agenda-custom-commands variable if the match would be evaluated before getting used. Thank you very much indeed.
