So I was looking in the wrong file entirely :o 

Of course a /Q /E will destroy a regex. I stripped them from the perl
for an experiment and indeed a regex-search then works. One thing I
noticed is that using 'search' (either with or without the QuoteMeta)
will not return any of the items in On mysqueezebox.com whereas they do
show up if their item_id is specified. Is that expected behaviour?
