Jan, It does support the regular expression, you should be able to maintain policies with resource like "hq_*_1_4" and give user permission to match hq_test_1_4, hq_foo_1_4. Please try and let me know.

As an example, I have three tables: hq_test_1_4, hq_foo_1_4 and some_table. I would like to grant permissions on the first two via something like hq_*_1_4 instead of listing them all in the policy. Best, Jan
