>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Extensions

>            Assignee: Joseph Witt
>             Fix For: 0.1.0
>
>
> The processor EvaluateRegularExpression enables some cool extraction of text 
> from data.  It currently limits matching results to a single matching result. 
>  It should be updated to allow multiple capture groups per matching term.  It 
> can keep the current behavior. But can also add inclusion of all matching 
> groups 0..n as an index appended to the basename of the attribute.
> In addition the name of this processor (and possibly its tags) needs to be 
> updated.  The processor is used to extract text from a given document.  The 
> name should be 'ExtractText'.  We can deprecate the old processor in 0.1.0 
> and in 0.2.0 pull it out.
