No...: this is a break of existing. Trailing `*' selects STARred devices
(I'm not the inventor of this). So `*' can not be used as a joker ;-)


You can allow escapes for those:

uc> disable i915drmkms\*     # exact match STARred
uc> disable *kms\*           # only STARed `*kms'

I have contemplated, too, adding for example "variables" to userconf and
rejected it because this would be only useful for arch supporting
boot.cfg,


Definition in boot.cfg was the intent.
