Thanks.

Ok new problem. I put things into the future quite a lot e.g. using hotkey 
"Alt/S" followed by "2H" so that it disappears for 2 hours.

That aspect of what it means to be "Active" was helpful for me. But now 
with "All" actions showing these tasks are not disappearing.

In Advanced rules I already have "Starred is true" so I added AND 
 "StartDateTime" - "on or before" - "now", 
however the result is that items that do now have a Start Date set are 
removed!
(Fwiw, "now" appears to be undocumented... but seems to work )

What I need is 
"Starred is true" AND 
( "StartDateTime" - "on or before" - "now",  OR
  "StartDateTime" - "does not exist"  )

However I can't work out how to put the brackets in !
