I have a form with a text input, and I want to make sure the user entry is 
prefixed with a specific UNC path.

For example:

\\server\blah\blah\file

is acceptable

\\bad\boo\hoo

is not.


In order to get this to work, I've tried the following, among other things:

INPUT(_name='file', requires=IS_MATCH('\\\\server\', 'You must provide a 
valid location'))
INPUT(_name='file', requires=IS_MATCH('^(\\\\)(server)', 'You must provide 
a valid location'))

Strangely, either of these seems to allow:

\server\foo\bar

This seems like a bug to me, or is there something else going on subtle 
here.
