Research direction
Start with the character-properties section of the linked regex syntax proposal and locate the existing property implementation in the repository. Trace how property names are parsed and represented, then implement support for javaLowerCase, javaUpperCase, javaWhitespace, and javaMirrored. Done means all four properties are recognized and behave according to the proposal.
