Tried to glom a whole bunch of accounts together for a query, but appears 
there is a 256 character limit for the // grouping, e.g.:

While parsing value expression:
  (cleared)&((account =~ /^(fu: bar|...lots of chars...|abc: def)$/))
                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error: Invalid char 'a' (wanted '/')
