Feature request regarding the autofill default URI matching.
Currently, the two most used options are “base domain” and “host”.
If you select base domain, it will suggest every option for the said base domain. If you are like me and run many services on different subdomains of the same base domain, the list can get really long really quick.
Changing it to “host” solves this issue for multiple subdomains and only suggest the relevant one, but then it fails to make suggestions for other websites where the subdomain isn’t a perfect match.
I suggest that a new URI match option is added: base domain with preference for host.
It would work like this:
- If a match is found for base domain, it checks to see if there is a more exact match (e.g. a match for this EXACT subdomain / host) and suggests only that.
- If no exact match exists, it will ‘fallback’ to suggesting an item that matches just the base domain.
That way we get the best of both worlds. It prevents you from getting a giant list of suggestions when you have multiple items with the same base domain but several subdomains, and it ensures that you still receive a suggestion if an exact host match isn’t found but one with the base domain is.
Thanks for your consideration.
