... except possibly those that explicitly say about case-(in)sensitive
behaviour in standard, like MATCH?

I didn't look into the code, but isn't there a way to set a *default* in the
regex engine (case sensitive/insensitive)? so that if regex is enabled, we
don't use any preprocessing of the string (transliteration) for insensitivity,
but instead set regex engine to "insensitive by default" mode, and rely on the
engine obey (?i) normally?
