Actually, the regex engine does utilize the "\x" string to identify a
wide hexadecimal character representation by concatentating the "\x"
string with up to three hexadecimal digits. Depending on representation
value only two digits may be utilized. Hence that is why the final
digit specification is set as optional.

Here's the faq on the regex specific extensions:

Or at least that is according to the documentation. ;)

Very true. That is why i think it is best to set a user-defined chain
for only the regex rules.
