Regular expression objects and match objects are not itself
complex instances that would need security declarations to be used
in TTW code.

This is complicated because they are not (class) instances but instances
of types defined in "C". You cannot assign the necessary security
declarations directly.

You would need to define wrappers that can carry the security declarations
and delegate the requested operations.
