I do not think so. I cannot imagine why somebody may want to match file name in
Colorscheme or Vim(Enter|Leave.*) events knowing that there may be more then
one file opened. But if one still needs to match he may use usual
“expand('%:p')=~#regex” condition which will work for both Vims, with or
without this patch.
> What are people actually using the ColorScheme event for?
Almost all color schemes clear all highlighting (i.e. with :hi clear). This
means that if you define your own highlighting group you must hook this event
to redefine it after color scheme was loaded. E.g. powerline is using this as
it defines a big bunch of Pl_* groups for statusline highlighting. I believe
other statusline plugins have to do the same.
