Ability to use wildcard with tags
 
   
  
 
 
In the "interesting" or "ignore" tag boxes, it would be useful to have the ability to use the * wildcard to ignore all the tags matching the criteria.
 
For example, if I had a list of tags like: linux-ubuntu, linux-ubuntu-9.1, linux-ubuntu-9.2, linux-redHat, ... 

I would like to ignore all the ubuntu distros, I could use "linux-ubuntu*" as an ignore tag, instead of having to specifically select the individual tags.
 
Any new tags created would also be filtered (i.e. I a new linux-ubuntu-10.1 tag is created after)
 
 
To enter a block of code:
 
     
  • enter empty line after your previous text
    •  
  • paste or type the code
    •  
  • select the code and press the  button above
    •

        This can be done - the * character is not allowed in the tags so the wildcard matching can be seamlessly added to the ignored tags interface.
