-------------------------------

    Attachment: RAT-161.patch

Proposal for implementing RAT-161.   If path separator '/' is detected, a specialized file filter is created that can match patterns across the entire path name.

> It would be advantageous to be able to exclude specific files, e.g. "path/to/file.ext"
> The current '-E' feature cannot do this, as the filter patterns are only applied to individual files as directory tree is traversed, so a filter will never see "path/to/file.ext", only "path", "to" and "file.ext"
> See for example: SPARK-1493
