    Customers who would need to comply with ISO2022 XML messages processing are affected with this issue. Opposite to what is written in this RFE's Business Justification, there are many bank customers who need to comply with ISO2022.

    There might be risky to update the code to support "Zero-Length Matches". Since the current customers might have their own applications with "Zero-Length Matches Skipping". Code changes would impact these customers and might force them to update their applications to conform to the new feature.
    Regarding this risky, this RFE is put into uncommitted candidate.
