Thank you so much, @bonniesimon! 🙏🏻

This looks great, but I'd move the explanation to the configuration section, in the

  • queues

option section (lines 249 to 265). In particular, I think it'd fit well between these two paragraphs:

This will create a worker fetching jobs from all queues starting with staging. The wildcard * is only allowed on its own or at the end of a queue name; you can't specify queue names such as *_some_queue. These will be ignored.

Finally, you can combine prefixes with exact names, like [ staging*, background ], and the behaviour with respect to order will be the same as with only exact names.
