+1 for that (or "FTW" or whatever this week's expression is). In
fact, it should be a SMOP to add a library that does some sort of
"structure regex" support, then write a "lint" that recommends more
idiomatic Factor. (I'm assuming of course that this hasn't already
been written.)

Creativity is great once you've mastered the idiom. Otherwise you
just get bad poetry.
