As far as I understand the doc examples <http://tiddlywiki.com/#regexp%20Operator%20%28Examples%29>, the regexp filter operator can operate on arbitrary fields, but the result is still a list of tiddler names. This usecase would require the filter mechanism to return the matching parts, or at least a part of them (capturing groups / back references).
Ideally both would be returned, so one could list the like so: <$list filter="[regexp:text[<excerpt>(.*)</excerpt>]]"> <<currentTiddler>>: <<regexp_match1>> </$list> Unfortunately, I have no idea how the <<regexp_match1>> part could be accomplished.
