DOES match anything across multiple lines. Both that and /[\s\S]+/ achieve
this (so I'm not stuck on a particular problem), but I'm just bemused by the
inconsistency that /[xy]+/ will match any mix of "x" and "y", but /[.\n]+/
doesn't match any mix of all characters and newlines (i.e., 'everything'
across lines) as one would expect.


Is it a DOS-style (and HTTP header-style) \r\n newline?
