My understanding is that the above should work. I tried your
org-agenda-custom-commands value with this agenda file:
* TODO a
:projectA:
* TODO b
:projectB:
* TODO c :project:
With an otherwise vanilla configuration and master (0c1740c91) checked
out, I see
Headlines with TAGS match: {projectA}
Press ‘C-u r’ to search again
scratch: TODO a
:projectA:
I see the same thing on maint (3ed035ce3).
