(Get the code!)
Do you have any guidance as to how this feature might be implemented in the UI? Looking at the code, I definitely think I could implement it, but I'm not very great at making user-friendly UIs, and I would like to increase the possibility of my patch being accepted.
Using a file chooser dialog box to enter a glob pattern seems wrong. So I think maybe just a textbox is appropriate.
Maybe the exclude list could have a new button called "Add Pattern," which would pop up a text entry box? The existing "Add" button could possibly be renamed to "Add folder."
Sound reasonable?
