I think we can get most of the mileage from a straightforward

But wasn't Jamie most interested in having the simpler perl/python

work so well for incremental regex searching.
It would be really nice if we had regex syntax for beginning/end of
*identifier*, analogous to \< and \> so we could easily fix all the
font lock keywords which brokenly fontify for example a reserved word
when it appears within an identifier as a separate word.
