Yes I agree. Actually, I haven't investigated the REgex in MX - I presume
that the are same as cf5 etc..
One idea, I think should be in CF is the ability choose your regex flavor.
That would allow you to do something like

refind(a,b,c,d,"perl5")

and still keep the cf flavor without breaking code...
In perl you can use pragmas (hints) to do this sort of thing.

As for the regex book, I find it useful because I use them in grep, perl
etc...

Yes there many new XML tags and functions. Look for Nate Weisses doc on
macromedia regarding XML in cf.
