+1 to that. Just to add a note, I do have some ideas about extending our regex parser so that it could duplicate the XQuery syntax --- none of the points we mention in 9.7.3.8 seem insurmountable. I'm not planning to work on that in the near future, mind you, but I definitely think that we don't want to paint ourselves into a corner where we've already implemented the XQuery regex functions with the wrong behavior. regards, tom lane
