[xsl] two regexp related questions

Hi there,

I've got two regexp-related questions.

1) Is it correct that XSLT/XPath2's regular expressions do not support 
non-capturing groups (as shown in 
<http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/java.util.regex/NoGroup.html>)?
2) With respect to analyze-string, and the captured regex-groups:

I'm using a regex like

  ([A-Z]+) = ([A-Z]+) ( ; ([A-Z]+) = ([A-Z]+) )*

for matching things like

  a=b;c=d;e=f

Works fine, but the regex-group function only returns values for the 
last match, so, with the example above, I can capture
 a=b (because it's a non-repeating part)

and

 e=f

I've worked around this by using recursion, feeding the "remainder" into 
another template.
Is there a simpler way to achieve this?

Best regards, Julian
