Dunno, how about:

location /dev {
  root /path/to/dev;
  # ...
  type text/css {
    expires off;
  }
}

location / {
  root /path/to/production;
  # ...
  type text/css {
    expires max;
  }
}

1. Yes, this requires nesting type{} in location{}

2. I don't expect everybody to drop regex locations in favour of type{},
I just expect it'll make some types of configuration easier, just like
try_files did.
