in reply to New section for Regex Q's?

While I completely understand the OP's desire to "compartmentalize [his] reading", I am inclined to vote "no." Many questions (including one of my first) look like regex questions to the one doing the asking, but have better non-regex solutions. (I might still be banging my head on certain questions if alternate ways of looking at things had not been proposed.)

Those better solutions may never be offered up if the question is pre-categorized as a regex one. This wastes valuable opportunities for both mentors and learners, IMHO.

OTOH, I am very much looking forward to new, clever uses for the Keyword Nodelet...
