I think the situation we're in is one of insufficient demand for
enhancements.  When demand evidences itself, I think we'll see
work on enhancements (provided those with the demand are willing to
do some of the work).  But I don't expect that demand to materialize,
especially after java.util.regex has reinvented or borrowed jakarta-oro
concepts to fix API shortcomings in its original incarnation (e.g., the
addition in 1.5 of MatchResult, quote(), the usePattern() kluge,
region(), etc.).
