---------------------------------------------
I think some discussion on this topic could save us experiencing a substantial
Gotcha issue in the future. Personally I am not dealing with the number of
suffiixes mentioned above, however this means little overall and I personally
back getting something out in the open which addresses this issue.
> Add pattern for filtering .js in default url filters

> The Javascript parser is not used by default as it is extremely noisy,
> however the default URL filters do not filter out URLs ending in .js and the
> default parser (Tika) can't parse them. In a nutshell we are fetching URLS
> that we know can't be parsed.
> I suggest that we add a regex to the default URL filters. If people are
> interested in fetching and parsing .js files they can activate the plugin in
> their conf and remove the regex in the URL filters.
