As already noted, there is an intention to provide regexes in the future.
However, there's the problem that XSLT is fully internationalized.  What
does an international regex look like?  How does it handle combining
characters and ranges?  Given that we haven't figured out
case-insensitivity yet, I wouldn't hold my breath for regexes.
