Bah, somehow this mail slipped through the cracks for me.

When you put it that way, I see how it can be useful. Although I admit
to fatigue on this patchset and now I'm hesitant about feature creep. :)

I'm going to send the reroll for v5 as I have it, not having seen this
mail, and think more about how I'd approach wildcarding in the middle
like this. I want to take a look at the other configs which use a middle
level as a user token and try to reason about whether we ought to be
collecting them. I'll hope to report back sooner (or later).
