I have got a different opinion. Now I am trying to refresh interest for the safe
determination of a well-known property (like from functions "strcat" and
"strcpy") and its consequence for return value checking.

Regular expressions can provide some functionality (in constraints) that are not
supported at other places in SmPL scripts so far.
