Still not working but seems the syntax for the (?i) mode modifier expression
should be prepended, not appended for regex searches.

In the Writer for find & replace IIUC since the strings are first
transliterated by ICU lib to fold case & and diacritics into its "base letter"
and then is matched. Also when regex is used for Writer text runs.

But seems there is no transform of text strings from 'Values' when handled in
Calc?

And the (?l), "Locale-dependent matching" in-line modifier (from Python regex
now deprecated) was not implemented in ICU Libs.
