URL matching only matches hostname not full or partial URL

[pfn]

Unfortunately, the way firefox's password manager works (the storage portion is what passifox replaces) will only ever send the base host url to request passwords, it will not send full paths. To answer your last question, it would be a no.

Firefox's builtin password management is also pretty fubar in that situation, too. You can choose a passwords to fill by username, but if they're the same username, then you'll have a hard time determining which is which.

I commonly use Right-click -> Fill user & pass in that situation (I have a problem with a similar situation on gmail and with google apps).

Subject: [keepasshttp] URL matching only matches hostname not full or partial URL (#18)

I greatly enjoy this keepass extension for use with firefox but I'm having some problems with multiple passwords on the same host. I have a few sites where I need to access different directories using different passwords. An example would be example.com/postfixadmin/ and example.com/roundcube/.

Based on documentation and previous issues it seems like this is a feature/issue that is not intended to be dealt with. I was looking at the source myself and it appears that matching of domain names is only done on line 44 of handlers.cs.
"parms.SearchString = @"^[A-Za-z0-9:/-]+.[A-Za-z0-9:/-]+$"; // match anything looking like a domain or url"

Is adding full or somewhat full (matching domain plus an additional directory) URL matching as simple as changing that regex string?
Does Passifox even submit a full URL to keepasshttp to look for?
