While the re2 comparison might be interesting from an abstract

Python so that it can run faster and use less memory. Since re2 can
never replace Python's re module, it doesn't make sense to hold MRAB's
new module to that standard.
re2 comparison is interesting from the point of if it should be
included in stdlib.
Is "it" re2 or regex? I don't see having 2 regular expression engines in
the stdlib.
