Search via syntax group

How to search for the next instance of a syntax group?

For example, say I have this .bashrc file:

ls foo
rm foo

"ls" is assigned the "bashStatement" syntax group.

How do I jump to the next token with that group?

Is there a way to get the regex expression from a syntax group?

If not... seems like there should be. A syntax-highlighted buffer has
lots of information encoded in it. There should be a way to leverage
that with motions, /, :s, and :g.
