Add a Regular Expression pattern to a String Generator

[KarelHusa]

Current state

Currently, the String generator allows to specify the length of the string and the string contents by character categories:

• Letters – By default, this check box is selected.

• Digits – By default, this check box is selected.

• Spaces – By default, this check box is selected.

• Punctuation marks – By default, this check box is selected.

Proposal

However, there are cases which need more precise string format. Regular expression would allow an elegant way to define the format.

I suggest to add an option to set a regular expression pattern. The String generator would follow the regex pattern instead of string length and the above mentioned character categories.
