Yes, I found this and it's very exciting.  I took it a step further, so now
we have a 'match=' argument which does a string search (no regexp).  Our
builders are named <product>-<branch>-<platform>, and this means that an
interested user (or, likely, an index page) will easily be able to do,
e.g., '?match=rhel-4' which will show all builders on both our el4 slaves
(32bit and 64bit), or '?match=ans' which will show all builders for one of
our products named ans, etc.
