 Replying to [comment:25 mr-4]:
 > Having just been made aware of this feature (thanks Nick!), does this
 match cover only the beginning portion of the address, or is this sort of
 standard for the whole address?
 >
 > In other words, does "node*.*.com" matches "node12.domain.com", "nodeA
 .another-domain.com" etc?

 No; it only supports matching whole names.  *.domain.com  matches
 domain.com, xyz.domain.com, and w.xyz.domain.com.

 > Another question related to that: is this a "standard" matching where I
 could use "?" to match a single character/symbol as well or is this not
 allowed/implemented?

 No.

 > One last question: could this be expanded to cover RegEx-specified
 address?

 Probably, though that would be another ticket, and we'd probably want to
 see a compelling use case.
