Description

It would be great to be able to ignore a specific collection (maybe based on a regex?), instead of having to specify all the collections one wants to synchronize.

Research direction

Start by locating the configuration and collection-selection code, then define how an ignore rule, including the possible regex form, should coexist with explicitly synchronized collections; done means a documented syntax and working synchronization behavior for excluded collections.
