At least in qtbase/src/corelib/text/qregularexpression.h[1] file there is a
QRegularExpression::DotMatchesEverythingOption enum constant. Which means it's
just a matter of checking for QV4 engine implementation of those flags. Here's
what in qv4regexp{_p.h,cpp} files[2][3], either in the struct RegExp : Base {}
declaration, or in flagsAsString() method:
bool global() const;
bool ignoreCase() const;
bool multiLine() const;
bool unicode() const;
bool sticky() const;
(little bit stripped down for convenience of the reader)
QString result;
if (flags & RegExp_Global)
result += 'g';
if (flags & RegExp_IgnoreCase)
result += 'i';
if (flags & RegExp_Multiline)
result += 'm';
if (flags & RegExp_Unicode)
result += 'u';
if (flags & RegExp_Sticky)
result += 'y';
return result;
If we compare that to the MDN docs[4], we can see that exactly two out of
seven flags are missing.

Not practically, no. But you can contribute upstream, or in the meantime
create your own wrapper class in C++ that would #include Qt's private headers
or something.
