No, there is no method for limiting receipt of a datastream to a
subset of its contents.  This issue has come up a few times recently
(2 times to be specific), so we have been kicking around ideas on
what it would take to add regular expressions to the allow lines.
This feature used to exist way back in LDM-4.

Cheers,
