With this change, you can use shell like globbing expressions (as
supported by Python's fnmatch) for entries in SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS.
This makes it possible to say that, e.g. "all Debian 7 Wheezy releases
are supported" with the entry "Debian-7.*".

I dont think its a good thing. We should be strict about it as we are.
otherwise it can end up
with bigger problems to save few  typing words

We (and I know other commercial vendors) are already using patches similar to this to do exactly the same thing.

I'd hope that a generic mechanism (like this) could be put in place.. and that oe-core/Yocto Project would choose -not- to use it for their distributions. (To avoid the exact problems you mention...)

The commercial folks like me can then use it, as we have to deal with the problems anyway.
