True, wildcard policy tool is handy, but not too fine-grained.

Yes, SQL is the way to go. It's quite straightforward, although there
are many joins involved (to limit to a particular collection and to
limit to bundles with particular name) - or, if you have the list of
bitstream_ids it's trivial. let me know if you need specific help.
DSpace won't overwrite your policies unless you run the wildcard
policy tool again on the collection on bitstreams.

As usual, don't forget to backup the database before changing anything in it.
