Feature request - Filter commands by site

Reposting since last issue was closed as invalid. #13648
This filter would be used with the config to run different commands (output template, video type, etc) based on the site being used.

Original post:

A command line option filter that runs commands based on the site being used. e.g.

--match-site youtube.com --output template

would run any commands that come after it only if the site being used is youtube.com.

Multiple --match-site commands could be used to make templates for different sites (e.g. different --output commands for youtube.com and vimeo.com, etc.).

--match-site unlisted

would apply commands to sites not specifically listed by --match-site.

Support for any url structure.

Or add the same support options to --match-filter

Duplicate of #3101.

At least it's a more accurate label.
Is there any progress on this, since it was originally suggested in 2014?
