Bug ID: 2030
Summary: Exact match mode
Product: PCRE
Version: 10.22 (PCRE2)
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: wishlist
Priority: medium
Component: Code

From time to time I'm interested in whether a given regexp matches a subject
exactly (that is, the entire subject string is matched by the pattern). For
this purpose I wrap the pattern in `\A(` and `)\z` and then attempt the match.
It would be convenient to have a match option that does exactly this without
resorting to string manipulation (and without the need of recompiling the
original pattern).
