Authorization file and domain wildcards

Hello folks,

We have a Windows server running Subversion 1.2.3, set up with Apache
and SSPI authentication to the domain. We're using an authorization file
to control access to various repositories (for security reasons).

Now we're doing a joint project between company branches, and
considering the idea of enabling remote access. We'd either add LDAP
authentication against the remote server, or add the few developers
concerned to a local Apache password file.

In either case, we're wondering if it is possible to limit access in the
authorization file by domain wildcards. For example:
* =
LOCALDOMAIN\* = r
LOCALDOMAIN\localuser1 = rw
LOCALDOMAIN\localuser2 = rw
REMOTEDOMAIN\remoteuser1 = rw

Possible? Initial testing seems to indicate that wildcards like
"LOCALDOMAIN\* = r won't work. The Subversion red-book doesn't seem to say.

Regards,
Craig McQueen
