      Experiencing a hard crash after pasting any Unicode character range RegEx into the editor accessible from the Options > Scripting panel. I've tested this on two different systems, one of which has a completely vanilla install, both producing the same result. Sometimes Picard crashes instantly, sometimes it takes 3-4 seconds. https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/PICARD-1374 seems related, but I can't get it to trigger.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Open the main Options window
      2. On the left-hand side, click "Scripting"
      3. Type or paste the following into the editor: [\u0000-\u0001]
