I see, well for that, I think it would be more consistent (with the 
existing feature set) to treat regular expressions as format strings, as 
we already use format strings in other places related to grammars, and 
as variables can be referenced is `${…}` it should not really cause an 
issue with escaping, as the only thing that should meaningfully go after 
`$` in a regexp is `\n` (or possibly '(').
