I'll be really interested to see others' reactions to this. My first impression when I glanced over the example construction was not good. I felt like it really didn't improve comprehension, but just forced me to try to learn a new way of seeing those symbols. Perhaps a visual regex "IDE" that completely abstracted the syntax would be a better approach.
