[issue4882] Behavior of backreferences to named groups in regular expressions unclear

[Jim Jewett]

Jim Jewett <jimjjewett at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

That sounds like a good idea, particularly since it is a bit different 
from Perl.  Please do write up the a clarification.

Typically, I have either attached a file with the suggested wording, or 
included it in a comment from which a commiter could cut-and-paste.

(If Georg has different preferences on how to submit the patch, they 
should probably go into a FAQ anyhow.)
