[CWB] Multiple constraints on structural attributes

[Roland Schäfer]

I thought it was clear that Ruprecht is trying this:

"this" :: match.chapter_author=".*Kerski" & match.chapter_year="1985"

Which should be equivalent (at least semantically – no idea about
implementation), to the variant with _ in [], shouldn't it?

However, I don't understand the "but this wouldn't be what I want,
because the query is confined to a single token" part of the question. A
constraint on "match" is just a constraint on match[0], and not a
constraint on a sequence. It doesn't keep you from specifying an
arbitrarily complex query for a sequence of tokens before the ::
