A subtle problem with this "common knowledge": \z is different across languages. In PCRE (Perl and Ruby), \z matches the end of a string; \Z matches the end of a string but allows for a single trailing newline. In Python, \Z matches the end of a string. There is no \z. In POSIX extended regexes, there is no \z or \Z. I think. Who knows, man.
