The "reswriting patterns" section of the docs says
"The source pattern ... is in fact processed as a single-item address list".

Looking up the bit of docs describing address lists, we find
"A certain amount of wildcarding is permitted. [...]
If the local parts match, the domain is checked in exactly the same way as for a pattern in a domain list"

And then about domain lists:
"If a pattern starts with an asterisk, the remaining characters of the pattern are compared with the terminating characters of the domain"

Note: "start with". It does not say you can use an asterisk somewhere else.
