Regarding regex and such ... as long as you use scripts with predefine naming conventions, you can rely on the same regex always working. That's what we do here. In short, artists never get to name their files.
This causes file structures to get basically unreadable as every scene or script file is generated by a script, but this is remedied by a project manager inside of Nuke/Maya (PySide) which translates these file's names into something more useful (based on a JSON containing a nicer and more descriptive name). This also makes it possible to rename files and folders whenever you like. It could cause some headache when rerouting Maya references, but apart from that - not so much issues. We don't use this for all software, though. Only for software which supports python and pyside. Works better than you'd think.
