When defining a pack, I cannot find a way to add wildcard sets of files (something that would be done with <fileset> in the install.xml). My specific usecase is simply to recursively copy the *contents* of the src directory (src/**). Currently, I am having to do this by referencing each file individually.

Essentially the file-selection-dialog should have a third mode which is documented as using fileset and allows freeform text entry.

Thanks.

    We are currently looking into this feature and will consider adding it to the next version of PackJacket.

    Thanks for consideration. The ANT Fileset class is easily includable so could be used, for instance to provide a tooltip that shows what files are actually being referenced by a <fileset> declaration section (at least this is better than giving no feedback to gui users who expect that sort of thing!).
