Sorry, but I am starting to lose track of the purpose here.
What is the aim of instrumenting regexp engine in this scenario?
I already know that additional regexps will be tested by individual
`org-element-X-parser' functions.
I am also not sure how to instrument the regexp engine and what I can
see there.
