Paths evaluated too broadly

[miksik@…]

When adding a path to the restricted paths, it is evaluated too broadly, e.g. adding /wiki/ProjectA will restrict access also to /wiki/ProjectAOverview and so on. Is there any means to make the plugin strict on evaluating paths, if needed?

Thanks for your bug report! I have fixed the problem with changeset:3184. I'd be glad to hear whether everything works for you now :-)

Thanks! It works as expected. ;) I wonder though, if there is a simple way of having both the strict and the broad mode built in, and using one of them as needed. Example:

1. I want to restrict access to all pages beginning with /wiki/ProjectA.
   The path in trac.ini would, read like this: paths=/wiki/ProjectA,/wiki/Whatever.
   If specified this way, the access to /wiki/ProjectBOverview would also be restricted.
2. I want to restrict access to some pages beginning with /wiki/ProjectB.
   The path in trac.ini would read like this: paths=/wiki/ProjectB/,/wiki/ProjectBInfo/,/wiki/Whatever. If specified this way, the access to /wiki/ProjectBOverview or /wiki/ProjectBInfoUsers would remain unrestricted.

The notation for trac.ini is just an example.

Do you think this is feasible?
