Comment(by aaroncampbell):

 I'm assuming we'd still need to keep a stack of registered shortcodes so
 we can use those names in the regex? I've not a regular expressions guru
 by any means (I'm fine at writing them to meet my needs, but it ends
 there), so how advantageous is it to create the regex using the list of
 registered shortcode names?  Also, at what point (if any) does it become a
 problem (what if there are 1,000 shortcodes? 10,000?)? I know that the
 problems it may create are probably edge cases, but I'm curious.
