Regex in parameter name

Hey Bjoern,

You can use some fairly simple patterns for wildcard entities, but none that would allow the expansion of characters you mention. You can use [list/sequence] like your example, 'name_[1-9]' but there is no way to attach a quantity to the sequence. Using 'name_[1-9]*' would simply match 'name_', a digit 1-9, then anything. Likewise, 'name_[1-9]{4}' will match 'name_', a digit, and the {4} characters literally.

If you know that the number will never reach a certain value, say 1,000, you could create multiple parameters:

'name_[1-9]', 'name_[1-9][0-9]', 'name_[1-9][0-9][0-9]'

This obviously becomes unwieldy, however, if the number has no ceiling. In that case, the more basic wildcard is still an option. Even 'name_*' or perhaps 'name_[1-9]*' to make sure the value at least begins with a number.
