A wildcard preference name for AutoConfig and/or Policies.json

Is it possible to use a wildcard of some sort to identify settings ?

For example: we have print.printer_WHATEVERTHENAME.print_shrink_to_fit

I want to put a wildcard to skip the printer name and just change preference that ends with .print_shrink_to_fit

So it would look something like this: pref("*.print_shrink_to_fit", false) or *.print_shrink_to_fit", false

Unfortunately it is not and there's no easy way to get those values.

Can you open a bug in bugzilla for this? We should really make this easier.
