Wildcards handling for the excluded paths is not available anymore

I also ran into this issue, since the description of the "SSO Excluded Paths" option mentions to use * as wildcard. It would be nice, if either the support for wildcards or the description could be fixed (I would prefer the former).

I created an issue fork with a patch using the path.matcher core service to allow matching wildcards.

Just a note to say the patch in #5 removes the "<front>" front page matching (which is, anyhow, broken in the current release - I have proposed a fix 🐛 cannot exclude for SSO due to invalid config lookup Active ). It would make sense either to remove all reference to the unused $frontpage variable and reference to "<front>" in the help text if you propose removing this, or else retain the front string equality test as per #2.

bluegeek9 → changed the visibility of the branch 8.x-4.x to hidden.

@bluegeek9: Should I rebase the issue fork onto 8.x-4.x?
