No. They're not all in a string, the match happens against each response
individually.

No, just one call.

Nope. The code does that for us.

You answered your own question. :)

Arguably, yes. It works out that things like /^127.0.0.1$/ won't match
any other valid IP though, so in the end it's ok, but technically the
dots should be escaped. Note: I don't recall if the code escapes the
dots for us, but I don't think so.
