Oh, I thought we would be creating a patch to support any /vendor/* entry.
I just don't see a way the cyrus guys will accept a vendor-specific patch...

Now I see where the "one-liner" misunderstanding comes from... I think real
support for /vendor/* shouldn't be too hard, but it won't be a one-liner.

My investigation on how to do that was:

(something like "if starts with /vendor/", then accept the value, with the 
settings you added to the array).
