Is "refs/*:refs/*" (mirror everything, including weird stuff) supposed to

No.  In fact "remote add --mirror" actively creates such.  See my other

Does your patch require * to be at the end?

Looks like it just ignores anything after a *. Want checks for that as

starting loose and incoherent and having to deal with the resulting mess
the code appears to allow people to make in their configuration.
