Should the tagged keyword in an email respect quotation marks?

If I email my account with the body text below

[state:todo responsible:me tagged:"online apps" milestone:"130315"]

the ticket is created with two tags "apps" and "online" even though no commas are in the tagged string. From the How do I search for tickets? page (http://help.lighthouseapp.com/kb/getting-started/how-do-i-search-fo...) example

tagged:rails tagged:"ruby on rails"

I would expect that a single tag with embedded spaces would be created.

   Hi Mike,

   This looks like a bug. I'll take a look at it. Do you have a ticket in particular that had this problem, it will help me make sure I reproduce the problem exactly.

   Thanks!

   Hi Julien,

   I can reproduce it by emailing my account's project. Just created a ticket for you to illustrate; email's subject was 'Multiword-tag sample' and its body was '[state:todo tagged:"online apps" milestone:"130315"]'

   The created ticket: http://mktschudi.lighthouseapp.com/projects/104171/tickets/119-Multiword-tag-sample

   In this ticket, here's the <tag>: `<tag>apps online</tag>`
   On another ticket we have where the tags were entered manually, I see
   `<tag>app "App" bug "public safety cop"</tag>`
   ("App" was the original tag, but the website re-cased it to "app" without getting rid of the original, so we now see both versions in all tickets that use "app"!)

   I also tried the body '[state:todo tagged:"online apps" tagged:another_tag milestone:"130315"]' and got
   `<tag>another_tag apps online</tag>`
   (http://mktschudi.lighthouseapp.com/projects/104171/tickets/120-Multiword-tag-sample-2)

   Another try reversed the order of the two tags so that the unquoted one might initialize the <tag>, but this produced exactly the same <tag> entry. (http://mktschudi.lighthouseapp.com/projects/104171/tickets/121-Multiword-tag-sample-3)

   Thanks,
   Mike

   Hi Mike,

   Thanks for all the info. I have a fix pending. It should go out tomorrow or early next week.

   I'll let you know when it's deployed.

   Cheers.

   Hi Mike,

   This should be resolved now and you can now use the tagged:"foo bar" syntax in emails.

   Let me know how that goes.

   Cheers!
