Is there a way to specify gradle source sets with a pattern?

Question

I have the following structure in my project directory:

• subfolder1/src/main/java/...
• subfolder2/src/main/java/...
• subfolder3/src/main/java/...
• ...

Is there a way to tell gradle to look in any folder that matches "src/main/java" for the source directories? I'm trying the following, but it doesn't work:

sourceSets {
    main {
        java {
            srcDir '**/src/main/java'
        }
    }
}

Whilst this is completely whacky, you can likely use a FileTree for this.

sourceSets {
    main {
        java {
            srcDirs fileTree(projectDir).matching {
                include '**/src/main/java'
            }
        }
    }
}
