Ahh, I see what's probably going on.  The matching uses the tool's actual input 
name (which isn't exposed, and isn't always 'input') as opposed to the label 
that you'll see in the tool form and elsewhere.  Which tool is this for?  If 
you look at the tool xml file you should see the real input name and can try 
that.
