Summary

Requesting regex be re-introduced as a feature for URL handling. The replacement for regex, "Browser Integration: Additional URLs" does not work as advertied. The below does not match as indicated as described in:

#3718 (comment)

My version is 2.7.6

https://sub1.domain.tld does NOT match with https://sub2.sub1.domain.tld
and
https://sub2.sub1.domain.tld does NOT match with https://host1.sub2.sub1.domain.tld

Context

I manage THOUSANDS of devices, frequently via IPMI. I can and have verified regex would allow me to have a single entry that would work for all my IPMI devices, however it has been removed and no longer works. I have verified that OTHER password managers WILL do regex without issue.

Now there is #3558 for multiple URLs in KeePassXC. In case anyone else is using my branch, here is a patch to migrate from URL_ALT to officially-supported KP2A URLs. URL_REGEX attributes are dropped, though, as I don't use it in many entries and it's non-trivial to migrate them.

This is HIGHLY disrespectful. Just because a single user doesn't use them, doesn't mean a boatload of users would not. In addition, it is nowhere near trivial to migrate them considering I'd either need an entry for EVERY IPMI I access or one URL entry for over 2000 nodes I support and the current unusability of "Additional URLs".
