consider adding regex searches for tag filtering
Searching for tags like 11-Q? or work-* would be nice and quite a bit of flexibility.

Yes, it is related to boolean operators. I'd love to have regex (and boolean operators) in filters.

I think this closely relates to this issue: https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/2017839-allow-search-filter-by-tag-to-use-or-and-not

This would be extremely valuable. Right now filtering just by a single tag reduces the usefulness of tag filtering to very few use cases. Allowing a regex (or even just wildcards) would open it up to a huge new world of possibilities. Such as the one I wanted to do just now before I found out I couldn't do this.... bummer.

Thanks for your consideration and response, Kirill. I do agree it'll be non-trivial to implement but it would be a great feature if mixed with saved/stored searches. Then you could compose very specific lists from your various lists a la Org-mode.

I don't think we'll add anything like this anytime soon. Too specific and not trivial to implement.
