Familiarity is user friendly. Standard Java regex that developers
already know and use beats a marginally simpler syntax they don't. I'd
rather stick to one well-documented wildcard syntax across multiple
projects than learn a new and slightly different one for each project.
Relying on developers to read and understand the details of a new
syntax is dangerous. That's even assuming it's fully and correctly
documented and implemented in the first place, which might not be the
case here.
