These functions basically perform part of what `replace-match' does.
The latter substitutes replacement group references (`\N' and `\&')
and replaces match in the buffer with the result text. Proposed
functions only generate and return that text, without modyfing the
buffer.
Yes, I understand that. I agree that these functions make logical sense.
The question is, is this operation sufficiently useful that we should
add functions to Emacs to do it, and document them?
