You should probably use the tag "restructure" instead, since that's the name of your library.

I think re (after Python's regexp package) is nice and succinct tag name.

type Example struct {
    MyField string `re:"[^@]+"`
}

Would really love this feature. Perhaps use restructure OR re? If it has to be one, propriety suggests it should be restructure, because explicit is better than...

The only problem with using 'normal' tags is that it imposes a backslash burden on quotes in the regex, but the advantages, IMO, outweigh that. The convenience of being able to Regex-out something and immediately serialise to JSON with tagged params, for example, is an obvious use-case.
