--- Comment #10 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed this topic in the design meeting. While there are a lot use cases
imaginable,  text processor are typically not the tool for regular expressions.
Users just should not expect complete functionality compared to alternative
solutions. Extensions are a good way to involve 3rd party contributors into the
development, which should be preferred here. This should not be understood as a
rejection - improvements to regex are welcome. => duplicate
