Yes I did, In fact I'll even quote it here in hopes that you
do to.

"Would it be possible to add a feature to the schedule that searches
for key words in a show and flags it so you can decide if you want to
schedule it or not?"

The Search Listing page does search for key words and does allow
you to decide if you want to schedule it or not. You assumed that
he meant automatically recording wildcard matches and he may have
meant that but he specified that the user should see matches for
a keyword then decide which ones to record.

Work on wildcard record rules is going on right now by someone
who is going to do it whether or not there is a list somewhere
of people who aren't going to do it who think they're smart for
saying they have a great idea.

I do not approve of people refusing to contribute to this project
but instead abuse it for the sake of their own agendas.

Do not refer anyone who posts to these lists concerning MythTV to
another site. You are welcome to answer anyone's questions but
this is the site for the MythTV project. No one who posts
questions here should ever be told, or have it implied, that they
have to go elsewhere for information about MythTV.
