pattern is, btw: (teakettle\w|abcd) Either pattern in alternation works fine, but even a simple alternation of the two goes back to the behavior that you might

pattern is, btw: (teakettle\w|abcd)
Either pattern in alternation works fine, but even a simple alternation of the two goes back to the behavior that you might expect to get from awful patterns like \d..\d..\w...\s...\d (i.e. reporting only a partial set of matches).
