Could it be that this is why boost::regex was useful after all? Did we rush too
fast in our joy of getting rid of it?
I do not think that solving issues with crappy compilers involves going all the
way in Qt's arms. Qt does have its flaws and bugs, and besides banging our head
against the walls, there is not much we can do to cure it. Qt does not follow a
standard, it is just Qt. Is it supposed to clear the screen before calling
paintEvent? Nobody knows. Does it tell you when the system keyboard is
switched? Your guess is as good as mine.
This is where relying on standards is good. There is correct behavior and
incorrect behavior. How do we find a good std::regex implementation for
windows? Is there a compiler version that works? Is there an alternative std
c++ library we can use? These are better questions than running towards an
hypothetical saviour.
I'm rambling, looks like it is time to go to bed.

Seems like boost::regex has the same issues as std::regex:

As I understand the ICU library is the only ultimate solution for
Unicode support.
