When adding a job a "default hostname rule" based on the URL(s) to download would be nice, OR a checkbox at basic parameters "download only from there hosts" which is checked by default.
Hm, this would change the actual default behaviour. At the moment all host names are allowed if a new job is created.
The question is if a normal user mostly want only the files from the initial host or everything the tool finds starting from the inital URL. Maybe you are right and the first case is more common.
About implementing this feature, I think a placeholder like %START_HOST% is better. So if you enter multiple lines in the start url field, only one rule is needed (which is added per default).
What do you think?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Yes, I agree.
