Would it be possible to call out to a shell-script to process the match into the replacement?

Say you wanted to do something beyond the powers of regexes,
eg currency conversion.

If you could like match this:
(£|gbp)\s*([\d.,]+)
and then have the replacement be like:
\CALLSCRIPT "scriptname" \1 \2
you could have the script do the logic of doing the conversion,
then pass back the string it returns...

Is that a feature already? (I just found this addon.)
If not, does it seem feasible to implement?

It's not implemented but I think it would be possible with native messaging. I will look into it if I find the time, but don't expect it soon.
