Comment (by dd32):

 > The change to .+ seems like it would also allow for
 some.subdomain.example.com to be whitelisted for *.example.com. If
 intended, that's all good, just checking.

 Yes, that was already possible, since it was `[\w.]+`, The only change in
 behaviour is that now non-words (`\W`)  are allowed in subdomains. I can't
 think of any failures here, but we might need to change it to a larger
 ASCII whitelist if there are any bad characters which can trick our string
 functions, etc.
