I'm running the appliance of 2.0-beta3 at home just to test things out and 
I'm running into an issue parsing a log that comes in an XML format using 
regex.  They are single line messages and I'm passing them in using 
filebeat.    I can't get a regex to match the tags in the message to allow 
me to parse out the information.  

For example (using the message below), I was using the regex  
<ID>(.*)<\/ID> to try to parse out the ID field and i get no matches. I'm 
not the greatest at regex, but every tester I've tried matches the data in 
the ID field when using that pattern.  I tried escaping all of the angle 
brackets and that didn't change the result.  Trying to match directly on 
any particular string fails too.  If I try using classes I get odd results 
like:

([[:graph:]]) or ([[:ascii:]]) i get a match on 'a'.
([[:alnum:]]) i get a match on 'n'.

I know its probably something small I'm missing in my regex, but I'm at my 
wit's end with this one.  Any suggestions?
