How does tiles know which definition to use? Is there a precedence

Without double-checking the code my memory from experience tells me that
the first definition found (as files are loaded and as found in the
file) is the definition that is used.
That sounds similar to what I remember reading in the code, and is understandable, but I would have loved to have a feature that uses "closest match"
algorithm as opposed to a "first-defn found".
For example:
defn= "REGEXP: ^some.+\.jsp"
vs
defn="something.jsp"
I realize that this opens a quagmire of how to determine which is the closest match (ex: is REGEXP: ^some.+\.jsp" a closer match than WILDCARD:
some*.jsp). In which case, maybe a weighting or priority option, such that if I have one regex that is more explicit, to use it before using one that
is less explicit. If I remember correctly, non-pattern based expressions are checked first, but otherwise, it is somewhat pseudo-random order.
I'm surprised that no-one has seen the need for something like this before.
Thanks,
Eric
