Description

For more, see the conversation from #685.

Conversion of Rust regular expressions seems like a hard computer science problem. It _might_ be possible.

I think the easier option would be to use C# FFI to bind to a Rust function which takes the Rust regex.

Research direction

Start by reading the conversation from issue #685, then determine how title matching is currently handled and where a Rust regex or C# FFI boundary would fit. Done means a resolved approach for Rust-to-C# regex handling and Regex matching for Title, with the relevant behavior covered by the project's tests.
