Is there work in progress to add wildcards to dnsmasq?

I run dnsmasq and fill in all of my network hosts and of course if it can't answer, then it forwards to OpenDNS for answers.

However I have noticed that windows7 seems to look to look up weird things on my domain (like ipad.domain.com and some weird *._udp.domain.com stuff) - and I am trying to prevent that noise from reaching the OpenDNS servers.

If we could put a wildcard after all of the entries in the dnsmasq hosts file, then I could filter out this noise.

Any thoughts? - tinyDNS is not an option for me. I can't tolerate it and there isnt any bind9 package I could find. I usually roll my own bind9, but pfsense isnt setup to install things manually like that.
