Jelly - test regex match in string property

[cc...@everestkc.net]

Is there a way in a plugin to test a a property with a regular expression and get a true/false indication?  I don't particularly need the "matching" text returned.

Reason: I'd like a way to determine if any dependency is a SNAPSHOT versus a versioned release.  This way we could prevent accidently generating a "release" for  code that still depends on a snapshot.

Thinking of something like:

    <j:forEach var="dependency" items="${pom.dependencies}">
            <j:if test="${dependency.version.matches('.*SNAPSHOT.*') == 'true'}">
                 <ant:fail>Dependency is a SNAPSHOT</ant:fail>
            </j:if>

Thanks in advance for you time.  Maven is a big help with our builds.
