You are proposing 2 things…

…one, about expanded regexp.

It means walk the repository tree and it is currently not done – and it
is not a good direction, IMHO.

Well, we could maintain the plain list of files instead of these
regexps.  I am not convinced it would be better.


…two, about item list instead of oneline list.

Some teams have a lot of files, see ’core’.  And I do not have an
opinion about which kind of list is better for readability.


WDYT?

Cheers,
simon
