I am on F22 but I have a lot packets that should match that regular expression, but dnf does not find them.

that may be true but you hardly can sell DNF as improvement if you need such workarounds while YUM worked perfectly for many years while working around the package manager in general should be avoided because no longs, no dependency solving and no useful confirmation
given that the dnf autocompletion is also horrible slow comapared with YUM i see still no advantages from the change, try "yum cl<TAB>" versus "dnf cl<TAB>", in case of DNF it feels like a network request
