  Ah, okay, I understand now !

  right. We are using XML Schemas datatype here, and the regexps are
defined in this appendix
  http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#regexs
character $ has no special meaning in XML so doesn't need any escaping
  http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#nt-SingleCharEsc

    <param name="pattern">$[a-zA-Z0-9_]+</param>

should just work fine I think, can you try ? If yes that's worth fixing
before the push :-)

  nahh, fine !
