Request: more Regex support

Two new ways of regular expression would be appreciated:

1. Regex-support on single books. Looks strange because this is not the purpose of a regex, but it makes sense. I have a subscription on a e-magazine.
This magazine is delivered with a default title content.
I have a saved regex to convert this the way I would like to have it and to copy the index and series to the right fields.

This makes me think of a second nice option

2. Regex-Batch support.
I often want to do several things: setting author, setting series, setting index, setting labels, refactoring title.
At this moment I do the following:
Edit several books
a Set Author, labels, publisher, series and regex index from title to index
b regex title to desired format

It would be great if I could just use one saved regex batch for this
Like SUBSCRIPTION1-Regex
find .* in author replace with x
find .* in series replace with y
find .* in labels replace with z
run series-regex
run title-regex
