Ext ComponentQuery wildcards

Question

I've searched the examples and docs and I couldn't find if its possible to use wildcards in the ComponentQuery query. Id like to do the following:

 Ext.ComponentQuery.query('button > menu > menuitem[text="Welcome*"]');

Since the button text will be the current user name for example "Welcome Shaun".

Try

Ext.ComponentQuery.query('menuitem{text.search( \'Menu Item\' )!=-1}');

Per the docs, you can use custom expressions. This works for the code I've included below:

var toolbar = Ext.widget('toolbar', {
        items   : [
            {
                xtype:'splitbutton',
                text: 'Menu Button',
                iconCls: 'add16',
                menu: [{text: 'Menu Item 1'},{text: 'Menu Item 2'}],
                reorderable: false
            },
            {
                xtype: 'button',
                text: 'Get matches',
                handler: function(){
                    var match = Ext.ComponentQuery.query('menuitem{text.search( \'Menu Item\' )!=-1}');
                    console.log( match )
                }
            }
        ]
    });

    Ext.widget('panel', {
        renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
        tbar    : toolbar,
        border  : true,
        width   : 600,
        height  : 400
    });
