Correct.

If you look at the examples:
ADMISSION;QUALTYPE=SKILL;QUALRULE=RECOMMENDED;QUALVALUE="Horse  
 Riding Experience":
ADMISSION;QUALTYPE=AGE;QUALRULE=REQUIRED;QUALVALUE=gt 5: 
you see that the qualvalue can be a range of different types, depending
on the qualtype.
So I think we need to allow any 

As always, it will be more easily treated by machines if values are
choosen from well known namespaces, such as the list of IANA registered
types. But there aren't too many of those lists around yet. (There will
be, of course, when more and more information is being made available to
an audience of robots and autonomous agents.)
