ISSUE-112 - was Agenda

Hi all, 

ISSUE-113 was closed and continued as ISSUE-130. Both relate to 
ISSUE-112. After remark from David, I would suggest to create a new 
issue on wild cards for explicit statements on sub-domains with 
concrete text as suggestion. 

The big question is whether we take full regex or some stripped 
version.
