I'm using 0.9.15

I noticed when trying to filter by a timeval field that there is an
annoying feature of the Add Expression dialogue.  If I enter the
filter as

prot.time      <       Oct 28, 2003 10:0:0.0

Then upon pressing OK, the filter is written back to the filter dialog
as

prot.time < Oct 28, 2003 10:0:0.0

Pressing OK now yields a parse error on the 28.  Since the parameter has
spaces, it requires quotes:

prot.time < "Oct 28, 2003 10:0:0.0"

This works fine.
