Since _duplicity_ already supports `--exclude` and [similar options](http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/en/man1/duplicity.1.html), I think it might be sufficient to duplicate the folder ignore UI so that we have an "add pattern" button, which let's the user type in a pattern and adds that to another list — similar to the folder ignore list — store this list in a gconf setting and pass it along to _duplicity_.
BTW: @mterry mentioned:
> if you gconf-edit the exclude-list and add patterns like "**/parts", the pattern is passed to duplicity and everything works as expected..."
__Does this (still) work?__ And whats the current gconf storage place for that list (the location for the settings changed some times if I remember correctly)?
