Thanks for the clarification! Although, maybe we need to come up with some
simpler, more clear terminology.

?)
Yes, this is a regression, definitely my fault. Sorry Alex!
The table on SOLR-3798 is missing this case: a glob matching one or more
explicit fields (as opposed to dynamic fields).
I've filed a JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4567

I agree - I wrote what I thought would be a good addition to the wiki just
above the copyField combinations table on SOLR-3798. But it needs
additional verbiage to cover Alex's case.
Reading the table in SOLR-3798 as carefully as I can, it seems to indicate
that your use case is supposed to be supported as case #9, leading me to
conclude that it may simply be a bug that your use case is failing in 4.2.
9 subset pattern <field> name <copyField source="*_src_sub_i"
dest="title"/> Yes Yes
Alex's case is different from what I call "subset patterns" on SOLR-3798,
since that's shorthand for "subset of the language accepted by the pattern
for a referenced dynamic field".
I'll make a copy of that table and add a case where the source value type
can be a glob matching one or more explicit fields.
