Any way to get regular expressions to work in MT Enhanced Provider for SDL Trados Studio's find & replace XML files?

I want straight quotes to be automatically converted to curly ones in the Google Translate MT output,

So:

In this document, the term "room" is used for an enclosed space. > In this document, the term “room” is used for an enclosed space.

I tried adding the following in the XML file:

<EditItem Enabled="true" EditItemType="plain_text">
<FindText>"[\w\s]+"</FindText>
<ReplaceText>“[\w\s]+”</ReplaceText>
</EditItem>

But apparently regex is not supported.

Any other ideas on how to achieve this? 

GT4T has a handy little option that does this automatically, btw.
