I was pondering about that. I'm going to investigate...
I was considering having several PCRE Regexp classes, one fast and one that does study, and maybe another set to do automatic widestring <-> UTF-8 conversions.

Just a general thought when it comes to automatic conversion between wide strings and utf-8: If there are match functions that return the position of matches or if there are primitives that only match at a specific position then we might have a problem of converting those positions. Ideally pcre deals with logical character positions instead of bytes in this case, but I don't know.
