Paul King commented on GROOVY-7540:
-----------------------------------

The regex idea was simply to align with existing {{replaceAll}} functionality 
but I don't think that is what you are after. I think String#replace will be 
the closest existing match to what you want (it works for just one 
source/target pair CharSequence - ignoring the char variant). We could provide 
a Map variant with keys and values being CharSequence or String and the 
ordering determined by the natural ordering of the keys for the Map - hence 
best to use something like LinkedHashMap (the default Map for Groovy).

> Add StringGroovyMethods.collectReplacements(String, Map)

> It should be possible to use a map with {{collectReplacements}}, like in
> {code}
> "f006ar".collectReplacements(["0":"o", "6":"b"])
> {code}
