I can't see your point. When I said "wild cards", I don't meant
they're HARD-CODED into CVS source code. The wild card patterns are
to be put in a config file, not unlike CVSROOT/cvsignore.

Wild card patterns are just a generalization of extensions. I can't
see why extensions would work while wild card patterns don't. If
programmers can stick with naming conventions described by extensions,
why can't they do the same with wild card patterns?
