Today I thought I'll try out the 'accept images from originating server

I opened my Twitter page, and all the user profile pics were blocked.
Found that they were coming from a0, a1, a2, a3.twimg.com
Now the problem is that the image permissions window forces you to
specify the full URL of each subdomain separately. Can we have wildcard
support in a future release, eg always block *.doubleclick.net, or
always allow *.twimg.com ?

This is bug #78104.

See<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78104>.

Wow, quite an old bug. But it seems to suggest adding AdBlock like features into Mozilla as the thread progresses. Instead of going into regexes, it would be nice to be just able to allow simple wildcards for permissible image servers.
