In fact, I've just reworked (and simplified) your patch so that a
'regex' task identifier may be used in conjunction with the other
task identifier types, make the capability much more useful.
In fact, it could be modified even further to allow multiple
regular expression arguments to be allowed, by maintaining
an regex_t array the same way as it's done for the other
supported task identifiers. I'll try that...

Done! With that capability, this a pretty powerful task-identifier.
Thanks for getting the ball rolling -- queued for crash-6.0.5.
Thanks,
Dave
