Have I missed something? Where does regex come into it? The help file
just says:

"tsvn:logtemplate is used with projects which have rules about log
message formatting. The property holds a multi-line text string which
will be inserted in the commit message box when you start a commit. You
can then edit it to include the required information. Note: if you are
also using tsvn:logminsize, be sure to set the length longer than the
template or you will lose the protection mechanism."

SVN will provide a new method for log message templates fairly soon,
although the end-user view is going to be fairly similar to the existing
tsvn:logtemplate

If you want to enforce log message styles, you have to use a pre-commit
hook, so you may need to use some form of regex there.

You can set any property name and value you like. From the file/folder
properties, Subversion tab, type in a property name, type in a value and
click 'Set'. Not sure how this is relevant to the discussion.
