Ah - 'inssert username here' was indeed a(n embarrassing) typo, but not the underlying issue - it doesn't work with <<list filter [modifier [Jonnan]]>> either - <G>.
I'm wanting to create a list based on the 'modifier' field, rather than the 'tag' field; As I'm reading the filter syntax, it *should* be able to do so, based on *any* field name (Just looking at the source - title modifier created modified tags changecount - I'm pretty sure there's at least one more (sync maybe?) as well), but it seems to only work with the 'tags' field. The workaround is of course to copy the author to the tags, but I would like to automate the process so that that doesn't need to be done - since I have a separate field to work with, separating the author data from the tags seems (To me) to limit the opportunities for human error that tiny bit more (plus avoid an annoying redundancy).
