Feature Proposal: It would be really helpful if URL includes could be enabled for only certain domains.

Motivation

Including arbitrary web pages into a wiki page is a very convenient feature to embed data from another server. However, since enabling URL includes in general is too risky, it should be possible to specify a set of reliable domains.

Description and Documentation

It should be possible to enter a regular expression specifying for which domain names URL includes should be allowed. So instead of only being able to check {INCLUDE}{AllowURLs} in the config menu, one should be allowed to enter a regular expression.

Discussion

What's the status of this. Do we keep it in a 1.2 release, or defer to 2.0. No work appears to have been done yet.

We better hold on for a while implementing this until a more general approach has been discussed in GuardAgainstCopyrightInfringement.
