Why wouldn't std.regex accept an escaped sequence such as "\."? I thought that the whole point of something like "\." was to make it so that you could use "." directly in spite of the fact that it means something special in regexes. Or is it something special to do with the fact that it's between brackets? I'd still have thought that it would just escape it, since it _is_ an escape sequence. Or is that the escape sequence isn't necessary in between the brackets, and so the question is how to handle it, since it isn't necessary? - Jonathan M Davis
