Suggestions?

I think in the past we've proposed adding "plain text" into the HID
attribute dialog (which runs the gerber export dialog) so you could
put informative text in there, but that adds the i18n effort.

Perhaps the default should change from "foo" to "./foo.*" and we strip
off the .* if the user left it there?  That would at least give a
better example pattern.
