[TxMt] Nested Transformations in Snippets

Is there a way to do nested transformations in snippets?
I want to do something like:
class FooFields:
[...]
foo_form = [...]
where the Foo is easily changed. Fields should be converted to form
and the whole thing should be converted from CamelCase to
under_scored.
I can do the underscored convertion, but I can't work out how to do
another search and replace as well.
I though this might work:
class ${1:FooFields}:
[...]
${2:${${1/Fields/Form/}/([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:$1_)(?2:\l$2)/g}} = [...]
Where the first regex is input to the second regex. But it doesn't
work. Instead it doesn't seem to recognise the regex as a regex at
all and outputs:
class FooFields:
[...]
{1/Fields/Form//([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:FooFields_)(?2:\l{1/Fields/Form/)/g}}
= [...]
Whilst writing this I have realised that I can just do:
class ${1:Foo}Fields:
[...]
${2:${1/([a-z0-9])?([A-Z])/(?1:$1_)(?2:\l$2)/g}}_form = [...]
Which is good enough as a solution, but I'd still like to know if
there is a way to solve the problem using nested regexs?
Many Thanks
Ed
