Ignore tags when downloading metadata?

I want to ignore all tags when downloading metadata. There's a setting for naming the tags to ignore. However, it doesn't seem to accept wildcards. Is there a way to tell Calibre to never set tags from downloaded metadata?

Preferences - Metadata Download - uncheck Tags in the Metadata fields to download section, click apply.
