As a Filr administrator I want to be able to easily configure the file types that can be indexed and searched by Filr so that my users can more easily find files. A good example of this is that Filr does not currently index MP3 files.
Happy Path Use Case:
1) Somewhere in the admin console there is a place I can define file types
2) I can select/de-select file types I want to be indexed in my environment

Inclusions and exclusions for files and directories need to be configurable in an easy way.
There are some parameters in the ssf.properties where exclusions can be expanded based on file extensions - but also directory exclusions are required.
Example: Customer has roaming profiles and GroupWise archive on the home-directory and does not want to include this data in the content index.
We need some possibilities to specify include / exclude also with wildcards. And the configuration should be possible in different ways on different net folders / net folder servers.
We are planning to bring admin controls to decide which file types would/won't be indexed
This is coming in Filr 4.0
Moving this to completed as we have added support for an exclusion list in Filr 4.0
