When a tool supports both regular expressions and literal strings, which should be the default? If you default to regex, users can match more strings than they realise (e.g. `foo.txt`) or less (e.g. `foo(bar)`). I typically see regex as the default, but I prefer the opposite.

I find it odd that people recommend Docker for sandboxing agentic coding tools. Isn't it easier to just create a separate user account on the machine? It's an established security boundary, and viewing output is easy (just make the user's home directory world readable).
