Allow wildcards throughout #417

Open michaelfeb16 opened 10 years ago

michaelfeb16 commented 10 years ago

In the current beta, wildcards are only supported to the left for subdomains. While this is great to avoid a thousand rules for cloudfront or amazonaws, why not let me use wildcards where I see fit?

Frankly a "*cdn.com" rule would eliminate 90% of my interaction with request policy, so why not allow it?

Wildcards seem to not even have the domain parts range that I had assumed. For example, I added rules

Allow | *.blogspot.com | *.blogger.com
Allow | *.blogspot.com | *.bp.blogspot.com

But still each blog on there seems to require custom permission, because its origin *.example-blog-name.blogspot.com isn't included in *.blogspot.com.
