while i like the idea of supporting modifiers like "quick" (short
circuit) and maybe "i" (case insensitive comparison), i think that (?i:)
and (?-i:) constructs would be overkill and rather hard to implement.
I figured that the (?i:) and (?-i:) constructs would be provided by the
regular expression engine and that the --filter switch would simply be able
to use any construct provided by that engine.
i know, that would be really nice.
If, as you said, this would be hard to implement or require extra effort by
you that is above and beyond that required for the more "standard" constructs
then I would say that they shouldn't be implemented; at least at first.
i agree.
