Say I have a note “test” with these fields and values

---
Multiple words: yes
singleWord: yes
---

DQL cannot retrieve it:

```dataview
list where singleWord = "yes"

(return the note "test)

list where ["Multiple words"] = "yes"

(0 results)

However in the console I can still retrieve it:

app.plugins.plugins.dataview.api.page("test")["Multiple words"]
"yes"

Dataview Version: 0.4.22. Obsidian Version: 0.13.23. OS: Windows

Fixed at some point in 0.5.22+ or later.

To avoid some interaction with other plugins, I created a new vault and install only the Dataview plugin for testing.

And the problem is the same, did I make any mistake?
