It would be nice if you could define sets of patterns to include or exclude within the HTTP Proxy Server. Now you keep adding .*\.js .*\.gif .*\.jpg .*\.css .*\.png every time you want to record a new script without the static content. If you could define presets of define sets in a property file the HTTP Proxy Server would be easier to use.
Fixed - see bug 41880
