Description & Comments:
When working with multiple 3rdparty libraries and generated files the ignore-glob entry gets unwieldy. For instance my current:
*~,*.org,*/tags,*/types_c.vim,*.dep,*.dll,*.exe,*.exp,*.idb,*.ilk,*.lib,*.manifest,*.ncb,*.o,*.obj,*.pdb,*.res,*.suo,*.user,*/Debug/*,*/Release/*,*/Win32_LIB_Debug/*,*/Win32_LIB_Release/*,*/debug/*,*/obj/*,*/release/*,*/BuildLog.htm,src/3rdparty/lua/work/*,src/3rdparty/ogre3d.org-out/*,src/3rdparty/MyGUI/MyGUI-src/Docs/Doxyfile,src/3rdparty/MyGUI/MyGUI-src/Docs/html/*
While this is manageable with a decent text editor (s/,/<c-v><cr>/g), an expanded format would be very welcome.

I propose little more than changing the setting page's ignore-glob input ctrl to a multi-line input ctrl, and accepting a pattern per line in addition to the comma separated list that is current.

Further enhancement could include comments. (I found such rather handy when using Mercurial)

Thank you for Fossil (=
