quick answer, from the docs.:

  The body of the @setting @data active_path_ignore is a list of regex
  patterns, one per line. Directory entries matching any pattern in the
  list will be ignored. The names of directories used for matching will
  have forward slashes around them ('/dirname/'), so patterns can use
  this to distinguish between directories and files.

Assuming that works, you need something like that for files as well
(that's for folders).  And perhaps @data active_path_include?

Reading a bit more I guess that's basically what you're saying :-}
