a bit slower and less efficient, but pretty hard to fuck up... on the other hand with one regexp command, one wrong character and your whole db could get fucked up...

yes definitely either way one would first to a database dump or CREATE TABLE backup SELECT * FROM thetable.
Messing up is okay, it happens. Breaking things is not. You'd want to backup either way because for example even of you her the word delete perfect, join is not the inverse of split, so data could be lost by splitting and joining.
