Here's > an example from the manual: This is a misunderstanding: Yes, you can use space characters in single value properties and use regexps to simulate multivalue properties. But you can't use Org's multivalue properties (C-h f org-entry-put-multivalued-property RET). Looks like an inconsistency or a glitch: Org supports putting multiple values in a property but has no reserved separator for multiple values. So there is no way for a function recognize multivalue properties -- what makes it hard to perform a search for properties with multiple values w/o having the user enter a regular expression.
