This seems like a bug to me.  My understanding of property prefixes is 
that they are purely a way to sidestep the requirement that an object 
cannot have two properties of the same name.  Since popularity, 
popularity>= and popularity<= are all different, I can't see why the 
query should behave differently with and without prefixes.

If this is not a bug, then I need to echo Arthur's question--"what are 
the semantics"--so that I can document this.
