It's great to have a safe options - and it would have been great if the default had been safe.
I think many people are annoyed with ReDos as a bug class. It seems like mostly noise in the CVE trackers, library churn and badge collecting for "researchers". It'd be less of a problem if people stuck to filing CVEs against libraries that might remotely see untrusted input rather than scrambling to collect pointless "scalps" from every tool under the sun that accepts a configuration regex - build tools, very commonly :(
Perhaps you can stop this madness... :)
