I am having a little trouble reading the patchwork thread, but I gather that 
you want to get rid of the preventive splitting of patterns and just let the 
regex engine handle it on its own? Was this measure taken because of a bug in 
Python's `re` or because its exceptions were too coarse/unusable?
I'll look into the behavior of Re2, in that case.
