I can’t agree with the first note. I’m not sure if we can call it a “replacement”.
Firstly we have long been having a ticket for REGEXP implementation and
this fact is not concerned with GLOB removal somehow. Secondly the idea
of removing GLOB appeared in light of collations in LIKE & in light of absence
of GLOB in most of other DBMSs.
