Find functionality does not support regex #572

Description

What did you do?

In a JS file, from normal mode:
/\bfor\b.*\bin\b[Enter]

What did you expect to happen?

Incremental search should match segments of lines with a for...in loop. e.g. for (var a in stuff) {

What happened instead?

Search opened, all of my keystrokes appeared on the line, but matching did not appear to use regex at all.

Did not match anything at any point after typing \b.

Also tried using just .* patterns and that didn't work either.
