So, if I'm reading it right the "name eq .*#{identity}" logic is not needed anymore.

I'm talking about the "Servers" for example:

else
server = all(:filter => "name eq .*#{identity}").first
response = server.attributes if server
end
return nil if response.nil?

I think we shouldn't append the .* to the filter (which used to be important when selecting by self-links, but not anymore) and let users set their own regex if they choose to.

This will also get rid of #33

This is a breaking change so setting to milestone 2.0

@icco WDYT?

If not needed anymore, let's remove it. I hadn't realized it changed, what's the difference that makes it not needed?

@icco So AFAIK the resources in .all method used to be looked up by self-link attribute, making it necessary to match my_instance to https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/my-project/zones/australia-southeast1-c/instances/my_instance. Otherwise I don't see much need with the leading .* in (:filter => "name eq .*#{identity}")

The problem of changing it to (:filter => "name eq .*#{identity}") is that if someone relied on old behavior, i.e. server matching my_server this will break their lookup.
