Wildcards for block names

Describe your suggestion
This would allow for wildcards to be used to specify a broad category for selectable blocks.
Settings
"Exact match for wildcards": Determines if the text before or after the wildcard must exactly match the remaining text in the block name or not. Normally enabled due to possible overgeneralization.
"Toggle Wildcards": Determines if wildcards can be used. Normally off due to most new users being inexperienced with wildcards.
"Wildcard Character": Determines what character is used for the wildcard arguments. Normally set to "*".
Example of Settings
"Exact match for wildcards" ON: Searching for the wildcard "*bed" would flag all beds.
"Exact match for wildcards" OFF: Searching for the wildcard "*bed" would flag all beds AND bedrock.
"Toggle Wildcards" ON: Searching for "*bed" will be interpreted as a broad wildcard and will successfully target all blocks matching the criteria.
"Toggle Wildcards" OFF: Searching for "*bed" will be interpreted as a specific block ID and will inevitably fail due to not being recognized as a valid block ID.
Context
This would be used as a slightly more elegant option for targeting multiple blocks during one operation than manually listing out the blocks to target. It also allows for up to 3 general wildcards to be targeted at once, as opposed to 3 specific blocks at once.
Final checklist
-
[■] I know how to properly use check boxes.

[■] I have used no "OwO"s or "UwU"s in this issue.
