Crowd support Wildcards

This feature request is regarding crowd understanding wildcards characters when authorizing access to a Subversion repository.
It would be easier if wildcards could be used to provide group/user access to certain directories.

An example given by a customer:

[<REPO>:/branches]
@SVN-<REPO>-Dev = r
@SVN-<REPO>-BE = rw

[<REPO>:/branches/*/*]
@SVN-<REPO>-Dev = rw
@SVN-<REPO>-BE = rw

The idea is give read and write permission just to the directories under the branches directory, but just read only permission on the main directory (branches). However the star character used to represent the directories under branches, is not recognized as a wildcard character by crowd.
