> The XML Schema Spec Part 2 (Appendix F) defines the multi-charcater escapes 
> which can be used in regular expression matching.
> \w should match all characters EXCEPT the set of "punctuation", "separator" 
> and "other" characters as defined by the unicode specification.
> However, \w sets up a range which matches all characters between x0020 and 
> xD7FF (gXMLChars). This range results in the punctuation, separator and other 
> characters being matched incorrectly.
