It can't reproduce on beaker-devel. So close it as current release.

This one is technically valid - if you choose "System/Added" or "System/LastInventoried" as your search option, the only operations presented are "after", "before" and "is".

The reason "is not" makes sense is that in the System/LastInventoried case, it makes sense to search for "is not <blank>" to get all of the systems which have actually been inventoried.

It's very low priority though, as you can get an equivalent search by using a filter like "<date field> after <date before the Beaker instance was set up>", such as:

  System/LastInventoried after 01-01-2000

Given the number of real improvements on our TODO list, I think I'm going to call "Won't Fix" on this one :)
