Sure, I can create a ticket. But first I want to discuss this issue with
the two search consultants we have hired.
I decided to post to the dev list in order to get some feedback on this
issue.

Hi Erlend,
The inclusions and exclusions are based solely on URL, and block the
connector from fetching the file. Otherwise you would easily wind up
fetching the entire web.
However, this raises an interesting issue as to whether there's a way
in the web connector to do what you are trying to do, which is to
filter based on URL after links have been extracted. The current
inclusions/exclusions work fine for any URLs without links but do not
allow for the case you are looking for.
Can you create a ticket? The suggestion would be to introduce
post-extraction inclusions and exclusions into the connector.

I just realized that if I exclude html files for a job, links in these files
will not be followed. Is this a desirable behaviour? Should links be
followed regardless of the exclude filter?
I discovered this issue when I was going to crawl only pdfs and realized
that the job ended without finding any documents at all. I think I had
something like this in my include list:
http://foreninger.uio.no/.*\.pdf$
http://folk.uio.no/.*\.pdf$
