daniel added a comment. Using PCRE limits <http://php.net/manual/en/pcre.configuration.php> to restrict backtracking and recursion would be one possible approach.
However, this means some expressions will fail to evaluate on some input. There is no way to indicate this to the user who created the pattern. Also, it may be tricky to detect evaluation failures, and it's unclear how to surface them if they are detected.
