Looks like it would be possible to do this with the regular subexpressions. Instead of keeping the matching row in the 2D array that you get from stregex, you should be able to piece together all the other parts, optionally with a string replacing that row instead of removing it.
If it's fast I don't know. But at least it's not loop based like strreplace
