Count my vote for that as well. I'd actually think rather than a regex only
variable, could it not be as was initially mentioned, an expanded string
variable that can contain regexes, but could just be other variables or
normal strings?
This would allow people to fetch stuff from db's or whatever so that if it
was allowed to have certain directories (configurable based on whatever
dynamic criteria) not counted towards quota it could be done quite simply.
It would also mean if you don't want to count trash, you could just simply
put "Trash" (or would it be ".Trash") as an item in the list rather than
having to make it a regular expression. Adding some flexibility to this now
might take a bit longer, but would probably save you from wishlist items
down the road :)
