Could you elaborate a little. The syntax of grep is not sufficient to make daily searches with M-x find-dired or M-x grep-find that happen frequently during searching system log files or looking into program and text document files. Wouldn't that warrant to use egrep? This is what most people do with daily searches when M-x grep is needed. egrep would be much more sensible default at startup having no need to set up separate customised changes for every person.
