Thanks. That technique worked great, except I had to un-check the top-level
AND condition for the filter to work. Otherwise the to-do list was
filtering out tasks that should be visible. Here's what I wound up with; is

Blank rule AND
X Starred OR
X StartDateTime in next 3 days OR
X DueDateTime in next 3 days
X Completed is False
