Yes, that would be the correct syntax, and I agree that using an exact 
query seems more logical. However, I believe there must have been a 
reason that  inexact queries were chosen when the original port from 
version 3 to version 4 query syntax was done.

Anyway, I'll check this out when I return to civilization in a few days.

Not exactly, it should be

  expr (Category=="test")

If you do a simple query in Gnatsweb 4.0 and select a specific category,
e.g. "test", Gnatsweb 4.0 will turn this into a matching query when asking
gnatsd:

     expr (Category~"test")

instead of doing in exact query:

     expr (Category="test")

This is not what I would expect and different from Gnatsweb 2.9 behaviour.
