I also often use replacement via perl istead of sed because of escaping nightmare

[@ayex86]

I'd use yq instead of perl + sed - one command. Not everybody knows perl. In fact, I don't know sys admins knowing it.

[@NickJanetakis]

In this case you end up running an identical regex to what you'd use with sed. I don't really know Perl either. The thing that bugs me about yq is the Go version of it messes with the formatting of the file.
