The reason I ask is because I was going to write a script that created a crude "most recently added" filter utilising the tagUpdate functionality, but I couldn't get it to work so gave up.

I was trying to use something like:
@RECENTLYADDED=
&ALBUM=The SMiLE Sessions
&ALBUMARTIST=Beach Boys, The
&DATE=2011
=RECENTLYADDED=1

then use 'RecentlyAdded=1' in indexTags.

You can't match a missing tag but there is no need to do this. To add a RECENTLYADDED tag to this album, you can put the following in your tag update file:

@ALBUM=The SMiLE Sessions
&ALBUMARTIST=Beach Boys, The
&DATE=2011
+RECENTLYADDED=1

or even simpler if you don't have any other albums with this title:

@ALBUM=The SMiLE Sessions
+RECENTLYADDED=1
