No one objected when I said I would implement the /a regex modifier
without it affecting caseless matching, so that's what I'm doing. I
also said that I would implement an extension which is to prevent an
ASCII character from matching any non-ASCII character. Thus for example
"\N{KELVIN SIGN}" would not match /[kK]/ under this scenario.
We need a way to specify this behavior. I'm leaning to the regex
modifier /A, which is /a plus some.
Another would be to have doubled modifiers /aa. That is harder to parse.
Any thoughts or other ideas?
