I use WebScrapBook to automatically preserve pages that I create on a social networking sight. This works because my user name is in the URL. But sometimes I have long conversations on pages created by other people and of course my name is not in the URL.

Is it possible to add a feature that triggers an automatic save if a regular expression matches some text in the page? Or perhaps an X path expression?

This should be technially possible but will be a large code work and thus is unlikely in the near future.
