You can file an RFE in Bugzilla.
You could put it on overvoice.
We have not had good success with crowd funded development.
Depending on whether you want QIF or other methods, it's either Scheme of C

Re: [GNC] Wildcard matching on import

By rules I mean the text used for matching, which is stored in the DB.

But if regex can't be done that is truly a pity.

Is there a way of getting change requests  scheduled, and crowd funded?

Re: [GNC] Wildcard matching on import

I don't know what "rules" you are talking about.  The importers either use 
string matching or tokenized bayesian matching.  There is no glob or regex 
matching.
