    I think a decent UI that would make this a hell of a lot easier, but also 
not embedding stellar in JSON would help a lot.  Something like:
    ```
    match {
      REGEXP_MATCH(pix_type, '^6-302.*') => 'cisco-6-302', 
      REGEXP_MATCH(pix_type, '^5-304.*') => 'cisco-5-304', 
      default => NULL
    }
    ```
    is a lot easier to read and deal with.  Also, enabling REGEXP_MATCH to take 
multiple regexes via a list in the 2nd arg would make things easier.

> A relatively common pattern is to choose the value of a field based on if 
> another field matches a set of regexes.  This can be done via stellar with 
> match, but if the list of possible regexes are large, that can be unwieldy.  
> To ease that burden, we should have a REGEX_ROUTING field transformation.
