1/1
    (a:bb:d)  1  ; should not match this

# 3. a simple alias matching the whole account name works

alias /^(.+):bank:([^:]+):?(.*)/ = \1:\2 \3
1/1
    (assets:bank:B:checking:a)  1

# 5. regex alias pattern is a case-insensitive regular expression
# matching anywhere in the account name. All matching aliases are
# applied to an account name in turn, most recently seen first. The
# replacement can replace multiple matches within the account name.
# The replacement pattern supports numeric backreferences.
