Hello, Please take a look at version 1.36.2 and the all too brief documentation on the new Options directives that are documented in the ReleaseNotes. They should simplify a lot of your tasks by allowing you to select by filesystem type and allow you to do wildcard and regexes on Files and Directories.
These new features are largely untested so feedback would be appreciated.
