Don't make "paths to exclude" absolute relative to path

Description

If I put the string "excluded" in the box, I'd like to exclude any file/folder trees from that point down anywhere in the filesystem.

files/excluded would of course work as it does now

but I want:

files/theme-images/excluded

and

files /node-decoration/excluded

to also be excluded.

Right now I have to delete thousands of lines from the report output using regex to see the ones that are "really" orphans

If necessary make it a separate field or make it a radio button option, or give this case a different syntax?

But I think just changing the behaviour of the code and leaving the form alone would work. . .

BTW I don't mean I want a specific text string to be excluded, I just used "excluded" as an example.

If I were using Subversion to manage my files tree I'd want to exclude ".svn" - the feature should work with an arbitrary string
