True - including "Title Case", which is also offered on the Basic Metadata panel.

From it's presence there one could argue that this demonstrates a anti Anglosphere cultural bias, in that it infers that people whose mother tongue is English are incapable of understanding "...an arbitrary python-compatible regular expression... can contain backreferences to parenthesized expressions in the pattern". Whereas people whose mother tongue is otherwise can understand "...il testo da cercare, una qualsiasi espressions regoe supporta da python... etc". Maybe it's so - can you point me to the empirical evidence

Most people I know can no more write regular expressions than they can enumerate a set of Latin verb declensions
