JE> Question about the Twit Filter:
Twit filters in their current state are for filtering a specific user's messages.
I haven't had any plans to support wildcards as I don't personally see the benefit. If I were to Twit "Jeff*" it would unfairly hide a lot of messages from current and future Jeffs that may not be the person I wanted to twit.
Another thing I would want to take into consideration for supporting wildcards here is that the twit filters in general slow down message searches, so the more complex I make that function the slower searching through messages will become.
