'*' in reserved_usernames field
Hi,

It would be great if we could use *'s in reserved_usernames field to remplace any caracter. My username in my forum is "François" and, to prevent confusion, I would like to block any username that starts with my username (François* or Francois*). With this function we could also block any username that contains bad word (example: *bad_word*).

François

Good idea, and should be pretty easy to add in.

Cheers,

Alex

1.2.0 allows * and ? in the reserved_usernames field - ? matches any single character, and * matches any number of characters (even none).
