Hi, [~mpercy], [~sati], [~bessbd],[~denes]
    About the consistence of regex or glob patterns in the path, I have the 
following three strategies. Please vote for which is better or give me some 
suggestions.
    1. Unify regex. Whether it is a directory name or a file name, regex is 
only supported.
    2. Unify glob.  Whether it is a directory name or a file name,  wildcard is 
only supported.
    3. Wildcard is only supported in directory name,  and regex is only 
supported in file name.

> In our log management project, we wan't to track many log files like this:
> /app/dir1/log.*
>  /app/dir2/log.*
> ...
> /app/dirn/log.*
> But TaildirSource can't support wildcards in filegroup directory name. The 
> following config is expected:
> a1.sources.r1.filegroups.fg = /app/\*/log.*
