Comment:

 [attachment:23587_regex_delimiters.patch] looks OK to me. Is this
 something we could unit test?

 What if someone wrongly includes '#' in an existing rewrite rule? What
 happens currently? If it has minimal side effects currently, switching to
 an E_WARNING doesn't sound very nice. See also #12271.
