Change from 4.8 to 4.10 with PostGIS attribute queries?

[Steve Lime]

It's hard to keep track of every change. I wondering if anyone else has
noticed this. In 4.8 with
PostGIS one could do queries like:

  ...&mode=itemquery&qitem=station&qstring=12345678&...

and the PostGIS driver would build the appropriate SQL. However, with
4.10 this doesn't seem to
be the case. I get an error that basically says that '12345678' is not
a valid PostGIS column. I
can work around with a URL like:

  ...&mode=itemquery&qstring=(station=12345678)&...

I kinda liked the flexibility of the 4.8 mechanism... Might have had to
do with quoting of the search
string but I'm not positive about that.
