I agree. I like the filename based constraints, but having both is
annoying and since the comment based constraints are more flexible I
think they'd have to be the ones to stay. I frequently find myself
looking for constraints by grepping for whatever it is I want, but if I
have filename based constraints I have to do a find as well. Having one
or another but not both would make my life easier in a small but
meaningful way.
