Jerin John commented on CALCITE-5979:
-------------------------------------

[~julianhyde], team,

Based on the above observations, I think RE2 may not be the answer to the 
additional functionality supported by BQ meaning this would require a custom 
implementation in Calcite to support it.

In this case, do you think its better to skip this syntax and leave it as a 
known bug for later or go ahead with adding a new BQ conformant operator for 
REGEXP_REPLACE to implement the above mentioned string replacement 
preprocessing now itself?

> Add REGEXP_REPLACE function (enabled in BigQuery library)

> Add support for [REGEXP_REPLACE 
> |https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/string_functions#regexp_replace]
>  function from BigQuery.
> *{{REGEXP_REPLACE(value, regexp, replacement)}}*
> Returns a STRING where all substrings of {{value}} that match regular 
> expression {{regexp}} are replaced with {{{}replacement{}}}.
> backslashed-escaped digits (\1 to \9) can be used within the {{replacement}} 
> argument to insert text matching the corresponding parenthesized group in the 
> {{regexp}} pattern.
> Example (added one space between \ \ to override md formatting):
> {{SELECT REGEXP_REPLACE("abc'", "b(.)", "X\ \1") as result;}}
> |result|
> |aXc|
