It might be obvious to you, but you would apparently be wrong.
It seems to match against a _single_ thing.  Please read the bug
reports.

   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And you've confirmed that you, like I, would NOT have guessed
this behavior.  You, like I, guessed that matching is against
the set of customizable objects.

This bug is not fixed.  Not at all.
