Is it possible to use the Schemamapper with regexp?

I have a XLS/CSV-file with regexp translations that I want to run on
certain attributes.

For instance I want to rename the value of the attribute MyColor

From:
Feature1.MyColor = my color is yellow
Feature2.MyColor = brown is an ugly color
Feature3.MyColor = Colors for geeks are #6B2525

To:
Feature1.MyColor = Yellow
Feature2.MyColor = Brown
Feature3.MyColor = AnotherBrown

So I want to use the Stringreplacer with regexp (more advanced than this
examples, searching for patterns), but with dynamic input (like with a
schemamapper)

I dont see a way of doing this right now. Any tips?

At first glance, the StringReplacer does permit getting the regexp
from an attribute, so I would probably read the CSV, compress it into
a list and add that list to the incoming features.
Then, run them through a custom transformer loop. Use a ListIndexer
inside the loop to fetch the next regexp, and the StringReplacer to
apply it.

If there are conditions - like you might use in a SchemaMapper - then
you'll need to add a Tester transformer instead.

Hope this helps. It's certainly the first thing I would try.
