Just throwing my opinion in: I like proposal 2 better than proposal 1. Placing a regex-based constraint on a bash variable assignment doesn't feel right to me. I slightly prefer 2a over 2b because it feels cleaner. I'm sure it will break some tools, but I don't have a good feel for the scope of that breakage.
