HTML5 appcache manifest

Problem:
Additional programming is required while listing all files for caching 
which I would like to avoid. I would like to cache a larger number of 
files which would create too much overhead to fill into the manifest 
manually.

Solution:
Why not use regular expressions such as wildcards to specify what to 
cache and what to put on the online whitelist?

Example:
CACHE MANIFEST

NETWORK:
piwik.js

CACHE:
/assets/* # <- this doesn't seem to work

thanks for considering.

Markus
