Hello,
I'm still wrapping my head around the recent changes to rules but at
the moment I feel slightly uneasy about the context dependence of
DFA prefix mode. The unease hasn't resolved into an example yet,
but my concern is that the interpretation and result of a pattern
varies with the dynamic context of the pattern's use. The examples
I've come up with all seem to work out ok so it's probably just
vestigial pre-r13523 NFA thinking.
Take the longest token, lie down and if the unease persists,
write some code...
