That's useful for some things (when the developer writes the regexps),
but for others it's not so good, e.g. when the _user_ writes the
regexps. The user probably wants whatever he's locally used to...
And then, of course, there's the issue of speed. Regexps are used for
enough processing that IMHO they must be matched by compiled, not
interpreted, code or they risk being unacceptably slow. Of course, this
matter less for some domains than others:-)
