Is there a new library filter (like author:, title:, etc.?) for Last Updated column? If so, what is it?

If not, please create one.

Someone was just asking about how to create a bibliographic report of all their resources acquired after a certain date, and I answered the best I could. But this field would be a must to really do what they want to do.

    It won't be a reliable indicator of date acquired because the date will change when a resource is updated (and all resources will have the same date initially)!

    Right. If we're not going to have a real date acquired column as well, the best we can hope for is multiple custom user tag fields, so we can put the date acquired in one of them and be able to construct filters based on that. As it is now, I've already tagged all my resources with the date I acquired them. But I can't do comparative operators with mytag: to limit the results. mytag:>="bought: 20101001" only matches the titles I bought exactly on 20101001.
