Hi Alex,

As you probably know, we already have a way to specify the type of each
variable in an URI template via the org.restlet.util.Variable class and the
Template.variables and Template.defaultVariable properties.

Could you describe the use case(s) that would require a full regex syntax in
URI templates ?

Best regards,
Jerome
