Do all the non-regex options uppercase the name for translation purposes? If so that's fine but somewhere (maybe here) the doc should reflect that no matter the strategy (unless possibly the new Regex one), the name will be uppercased to do case-insensitive matching

Hi @mattyb149
I have updated the documentation

"Spaces will be removed from column names Ex. 'User Name' becomes 'USERNAME'"),
REMOVE_UNDERSCORE_AND_SPACE("Remove Underscores and Spaces",
"Spaces and Underscores will be removed from column names Ex. 'User_1 Name' becomes 'USER1NAME'"),
REMOVE_ALL_SPECIAL_CHAR("Remove Regular Expression Characters",

Can you include examples for the two Regex choices? They are the most complex so the more and clearer the documentation the better. After that I'm good to merge!
