            Bug ID: 145069
           Summary: [Content Extensions] Relax restrictions on triggers
                    that match everything.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Right now we have restrictions on rules with triggers that match everything such as .*
We do not allow them after ignore-previous-rules.
We do not allow them with if-domain or unless-domain.

There are simple workarounds for these restrictions such as using [a-zA-Z]* which would have effectively the same behavior but kill performance by matching on almost every character.  We should just compile the right thing and let people be able to use .* everywhere and encourage them to put their css at the beginning.
