Interesting. I notice they were discussing how to insert values in the
"Matcher concept" thread. We're tentatively approaching this by using a
separate element. For example,

<select type="content-type" value="text/*">
	<md name="rewrite-suffix"><insert type="parent" result="partial"/></md>
</select>

This would insert the value of the parent selector (in this case, the
content-type selector) in the place of the insert element, and make a
partial insert (i.e., only insert the portion matched by a wildcard, not the
whole matched value).

In general, I see a lot of parallels in what I've been doing, but in a
completely different problem domain. This is encouraging.
