I think we can take the kinder view that reporter intended to file this as a
doc bug, not "hijacking a bug" for a support question.

(in reply to the bug report)

However that doesn't mean I fully agree. The doc you quoted is in a section
titled "Rule Definitions and Privileged Settings". Defining your own rules or
modifying those settings requires a certain minimum of expertise in working
with perl regexps. If you can't follow the perl regexp example, then you should
not be writing your own.

On the other hand, it may be a fair criticism that nowhere in the documentation
does it explain why you might want to write a redirector_pattern or what uses
it. I think my first cuts at writing an explanation are too wordy. Can anyone
suggest a one sentence or less addition to the existing documentation that
makes it clear what redirector patterns are used for?
