You mean you want:

   <?access-control
     accept="http://*.example.org"
     except="*"?>

   <?access-control
     accept="http://foo.example.org"
     except="http://bar.example.org"?>

to be different from:

   <?access-control
     accept="http://*.example.org http://foo.example.org"
     except="* http://bar.example.org"?>

or something?

Could you elaborate on the potential problems?

I'm not sure I understood the "old proposal". Care to explain?
