I am happy with your extension of regex for java.
There is a slight improvement i would appreciate.

I use parsing from within java but also from within perl , so it is a big advantage to have the same syntax.
I found that in perl recursive reference is normally written (?&name) but thank god (?'name') works as well.
The latter is what you provide.
The mainstream in perl is (?&name). what do you think about adding this variant also to keep pace with perl?
