no regexps, but you can use typeaheadfind in firefox now. i think that's as far as we're going to go wrt searching -> wfm

I don't understand how typeaheadfind can be used in Cookie Manager and Image Manager to create static filters that will work for related domains. The idea is to create a single manager entry that will work for both m2.doubleclick.com and m3.doubleclick.com with a single m?.doubleclick.com entry.
sorry, misinterpreted the summary and comments here. updating summary and reopening.

Even just a simple wild card would be a step in the right direction. i.e. ad.*.* - to allow filtering of any sub-domain named ad. *I know this bug refers explicitly to regex, however, 1) This was marked as a duplicate of [ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=299702 ], which only refers to wildcards. 2) Only coders use regex, most of whom in my experience typically find them a pain.
this is the domain of addons
