Perhaps the predicate function could somehow employ 'split-string', which
will target hyphens (or whatever regexp of separators) and split every
occurence of a composite as two separate strings which can then be checked
separately for equality against the alist.
(split-string "\\alpha-\\beta" "-")
=> ("\\alpha" "\\beta")
Still, do people think that that prog-mode should also work with regexp
and what would the benefits be.
