New description:

 At the moment dates passed to BB_Query can be exact or greater-than/less-
 than.

 Support for ranges would be nice too e.g.:

 {{{
 'updated' => '2008-04-01:2008-04-31'
 }}}

Comment:

 We can't use ":" since it's the natural punctuation for time.

 ISO 8601 defines the range symbol as "/", but allows "--" to be used as
 well.

 How about we use "--"?

 Other ideas are "<>", "<->".
