[katello-devel] package filters don't allow for foo > 2.3

So Taw just asked me if we supported setting a package filter to filter
out something like foo > 2.3
It turns out we don't, at least not every easily or reliably. Pulp
supports regular expressions, but doing something like foo > 2.3 is
incredibly difficult with a regular expression and looks a little like:
foo-(\d{2,}|[3-9]|2\.(\d{2,}|[4-9]))
But this maybe isn't even all that reliable (and is too complicated for
a user to write).
a) Is this an issue (assuming yes)?
b) Should I open up a pulp bug to allow the better syntax of foo > 2.3 ?
