Checkbox in Regular Expressions section of QA so we can enable and disable regular expressions easily

Power users often use the Regular Expressions section for a more advanced and powerful QA. I particularly have over 100 regular expressiones with I use very often with one of my big clients. However, I sometimes work for other clients and not all such Regular Expressions are suited there. It would be interesting to have a quick way to enable/disable regular expressiones as we now have next to the Translation Memories in Trados Studio 2019 SR2.

These are a tiny fraction of my regular expressions.

You can guess the pain I have to endure when I change to a new client. I have to manually DELETE all Regexes I don't want, which is not only time consuming, but irreversible. Something like the checkboxes near the Translation Memories.

Something like these checkboxes would be great. That way, you can easily disable/enable regular expressiones easily instead of having to undergo a tedious procedure that cannot be reversed. Sometimes, we would like to disable regular expressions, not delete them!
