I've tested Nautilus and Thunar (which support ".hidden"), and it looks like wildcards are not supported there. Only full names work.
And leading and trailing slashes are not ignored (which makes sense, because files may actually have leading/trailing spaces). This patch has the same behavior.

It would be a nice feature for all file managers, but it would mean more overhead.

I left this method (and others) public because I thought that, maybe in the future, someone may want to use this method.
But you're right, it's not used anywhere else and should probably be private/protected.

Oops, forgot to remove `QString` from line `QString name = stream.readLine();` below!
