> It would be a good addition to extend the pattern API to support quantifiers known from regular expressions (e.g. Kleene star, ?, +, or count bounds). This would considerably enrich the set of supported patterns.
> Implementing the count bounds could be done by unrolling the pattern state. In order to support the Kleene star operator, the {{NFACompiler}} has to be extended to insert epsilon-transition between a Kleene start state and the succeeding pattern state. In order to support {{?}}, one could insert two paths from the preceding state, one which accepts the event and another which directly goes into the next pattern state.
