[OT, The following comment concerns re-builder]
In re-builder, there is a way to convert between various regexp styles.
It is bound to C-c TAB by default. It is not clear to me, whether
re-builder supports rx-to-regexp conversions.
When I try converting the following regexp (C-h v org-heading-regexp) in
read format to rx format
"^\\(\\*+\\)\\(?: +\\(.*?\\)\\)?[ \t]*$"
I am seeing that the re-builder translates that to
,----
| '()
`----
with the following message
,----
| rx-form: Unknown rx form `nil'
`----
I am not sure whether that counts as bug. It is possible that
re-builder doesn't support such translation or that I am using the
interface wrongly.
While,
(xr "^\\(\\*+\\)\\(?: +\\(.*?\\)\\)?[ \t]*$"))
gives me
(seq bol
(group
(one-or-more "*"))
(opt
(one-or-more " ")
(group
(minimal-match
(zero-or-more nonl))))
(zero-or-more
(any " " " "))

I will let others review the changes.
Some libraries like org.el use complex regexps. For someone who wants
to dig deep in to what the regexps amount to, without resorting to
pen-and-paper, one can imagine a utility which overlays or tooltips a
regexp like string with it's rx counterpart. It could be quite useful.
