This is perfectly fine but because in general there is some amount of impurtiy in regex and it won't work. Yet regex is called at CTFE so there is no way it can escape mutable pointer to its result.

Thoughts?

100% agree. Any CTFE'd result is implicitly unique. In fact CTFE annoyingly makes everything unique, even where it doesn't have to!

Please file enhancement request if not already.
