It is message-ID 20190718033940.12820-1-phil@xxxxxx and follow-ups, trying to prevent users from matching against the values we decided to use for "no data available" situations. This whole attempt feels a bit futile. Maybe we should introduce something to signal "no value" so that cmp expression will never match for '==' and always for '!='? Not sure how to realize this via registers. Also undecided about '<' and '>' ops. Cheers, Phil
