I suggest to take software design possibilities a bit more into account
around the application of disjunctions for the semantic patch language.
SmPL disjunctions can be used to search for unwanted source code fragments
before processing the remaining interesting cases.
I would find a direct search approach nicer.
But other special consequences might be usual for such use cases.
