addition to the reference guide. Thanks again for the assistance on this.

> It is really useful in some situations to have a string split function to
> split string values into arrays of strings based on a delimiter string or
> pattern.
> The intention is to add a REGEXP_SPLIT function that works in similar fashion
> to the [Postgresql REGEXP_SPLIT_TO_ARRAY
> function|http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/functions-string.html].
> The function will take two parameters:
> * the input value to be split
> * the regular expression pattern to be used to split the input into an array
> The output of the function will be {{VARCHAR_ARRAY}}
