I wouldn't recommend to do this because:

This is indeed the way to go: automatically recognize patterns instead of
bothering the user to do it manually.
I'd go even farther and try to build a DFA for
  <map:match pattern="foodir/**html">
    ...
  </map:match>
  <map:match pattern="bardir/**html">
    ...
  </map:match>
the same way lexers do. In the example above, you can decide where to go
after examining *one* character...
