Sorry, but I do not understand the meaning of your words:
"universe of discourse"
"entity goals"
And I am confused by this sentences:
"A significant number of which mention Kate *or* Kwrite *or* Katepart."
"In a discussion of "regular expressions", does it matter which of those
packages is referred to?"
Maybe I need more sleep. Apologies. I hope someone understands and can answer
your questions.
I am guessing you are talking about:
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/kate/regular-expressions.html
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/katepart/regular-expressions.html
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/kwrite/index.html (I presume kwrite does
not support regular expressions)
If I have understood your query (which seems unlikely), is the answer:
Kwrite does not support regular expressions whil eKate and Katepart support the
same regular expressions as defined in
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/katepart/regular-expressions.htm
