index patterns should be tolerant of spaces after commas #88338

Open mattkime opened 2 years ago

mattkime commented 2 years ago

Description

When specifying multiple wildcards in a single index pattern they must be separated by a comma and only a comma. No space. Everywhere else in life commas and spaces go together. The content after the space is ignored which causes confusion - its returns valid yet not entirely accurate results. Can the space after the comma just be removed or ignored by the index pattern parser? The space after the comma has to expressive purpose.
