But if I later update metadata from the saved metadata column, the "&" doesn't work - so the "char1 & char2" pairings are no longer excluded and will re-appear in the pairing column. In this case, though, "&" does work:

Am I doing something wrong? Or is this the expected behavior?

I think this is another weird BeautifulSoup 3 vs 4 difference that I didn't notice because it works fine 99% of the time.
FFF uses & internally for historical reasons, and that should be what works in general.
You should be able to use:
Code:
exclude_metadata_post:
onlyromships=~&
No need to match the spaces around &, I don't think. But if you do want to, you probably want the trailing * so it's "0 or more spaces" on both sides of the & like so:
Code:
exclude_metadata_post:
onlyromships=~[ ]*&[ ]*
You seem to be one of those people who (through no fault of their own) are just naturally gifted at finding bugs in my code.
I used to work with a guy like that--whatever I made would work fine for everybody else. But he just thought and did things differently, in ways I couldn't even think of, then...
