The first combo box is for the search pattern, not for a file name. For that combo, we'd need StructuredTextTypeHandlerFactory.REGEX iff the "Regular expression" checkbox is checked. Otherwise, we maybe need a special implementation that knows about the basic pattern characters *?\

The second combo needs a special implementation that knows about *.?!,
