GNU bash features regex and ranges, too.
Personally, I'm just much more familiar with my shell than with any of the available scripting languages, because I interact with it on a daily basis, to do so many different things.
I'd probably spend more time with perl, python or ruby if they could also act as a comfortable, interative shell for me.
