[issue433029] SRE: posix classes aren't supported

[Fredrik Lundh]

Fredrik Lundh <effbot at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Yes, this refers to the POSIX character classes as described here:

(Ideally, there should be an (internal) API that lets you register class 
definitions from the Python level.)

Support for Unicode properties could perhaps be addressed at the same 
time:
