There's a tc39 stage -1 proposal for progressive regexps!

No syntax/API yet (SocketDev/tc39-propoal-progress-allowing-regexp#4) but it looks like they want to make it so you can natively use a stream-ish regex parser

I just found the proposal the other day and thought it was cool and tangentially related to this project.

NOTE that it's literally completely bereft of any contents. The spec page is still the template one 🤣 but at least it's cool!

Cool! Didn't know about that. "Stage -1" lol. I imagine having a real streaming regex engine to do API experiments with might be pretty useful to the proposal author/s. I opened SocketDev/tc39-propoal-progress-allowing-regexp#5 so let's see what happens!
