No way to single out calendars whose names are leading substrings of other calendar names

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a calendar called any-name
2. Create a new calendar called any-name-plus-more
3. run gcalcli --cal any-name calw

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: A week view of calendar any-name, and any-name alone
Reality: A week view of calendars any-name and any-name-plus-more

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.4 on Gentoo, from the ebuild at Gentoo Bugzilla

This already works in gcalcli.  The --cal option uses a regex for expressing a 
calendar.  So with the example stated using:

gcalcli --cal "^any-name$" agenda

will work as expected.  With the begin/end regex specification any calendar 
whose name contains the substring "any-name" will be matched.
