I'm not in love with having "match" in the name, but I could live with matchAll() and matchOne().

I like these names. Having short names is nice and all, but having clear ones is even better. Especially when the extra cost is just another three letters to type.

I'm not really fond of matchOne()... Is there any precedence on this?

There is a precedent for any naming thing you care to consider, and some you would prefer not to.

I am with Jonas on this - I don't think the name hurts or increases confusion and it does slightly decrease it. But picking names is always painful. We'll never get it perfectly right, but we can always get it oh-so-very wrong :(

cheers
