Well they do :) here's a regex that will match any file if it does not contain "Copyright" (can be quite useful, that :p).

Negative search
Dimitrios Kolovos posted a while ago a plugin to allow negative searches within Eclipse (how to find a file that does not contain a given String). I didn't want to install yet another plugin in my Eclipse and thought that regexes should allow for this.
