This is actually a fairly simple case, where one substring will match
all the domains required. In more complex cases, you can specify several
substrings, separated by spaces, and a match of any single substring will
cause the URL to be allowed.
It's actually pretty rare that you'd need to resort to regular expressions,
but for those cases, they are supported in the 3.2.0b3 beta.
