This is also an issue for Qt 5. There is a wish to replace the QRegExp with an
external dependency (PCRE and the v8 RE engine are discussed).

PCRE is the obvious best, but incurs the cost of utf-8 to utf-16 conversion and
the fact that pcreapi returns byte offsets rather than characters:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.qt.qt5-feedback/1524/focus=1616

Would a way to use pcre with utf-16 more easily be accepted?
What would such a patch need to look like?
Would that be a compile-time option?
Would it be possible to add API which returns something else than byte offsets?
