I did try to see if I could get that to work, but I couldn't figure it out. I'll see if I can play around more with that api.
So say I did investigate a little more to see how much work it would take to adapt the re module to accept an iterator (while leaving the current string api as another code path). Depending on how complicated a change this would be, how much interest would there be in other people using this feature? From what I understand about regular expressions, they're essentially stream processing and don't need backtracking, so reading from an interator should work too (right?).
