Searching for flags in bugzilla is highly unintuitive, but it does work
if you do it correctly, see below.

Can't reproduce that, shows 2 bugs for me.

You're using the wrong query. What you did was add the first flag, then
click the "And" button and add the second one. That leads to bugzilla
applying the query to the _same_ flag, so the second query doesn't have
any effect.
What you want to do is "Add another boolean chart" and add the second
query there. The same applies to the others below.
