How to use auth policy rule for in-between wildcard

According to this Istio don’t support the following types of wildcard /api/v1/authors/*/comments

If I want to apply authZ (jwt scope), its not possible at the moment. Whats the recommendation for this usecase?

One way could be moving authZ to application level, but wanted to check if there is any other way to solve it from istio side.

Thanks
