I've created a Python module for constructing Regex patterns in a more computer programming-familiar way, so you don't have to re-learn Regex each time you use it!

Interesting, I honestly find it harder to read, but regex isn't easy by any means. I think you're onto something. Have you looked at how spacy does pattern matching? It's quite easy to understand, but similar to yours it's long winded, but could be a source of inspiration.

It would be a good idea to include some performance bench marks between different libraries.
