Hi Henrik,

just a small reminder about this feature. I also think the syntax should
be something like :

NCV_whatever"%.+ on .+:GAUGE"

so it's consistent with other uses of regexes in files.

Tell me if you plan to look at this soon, or else I'll try to implement
it (uglily and buggily :) by myself.
