What's a named subpattern, though? I've not heard of these before.

A named subpattern is one of the form:
(?P<name>...)
Thanks, Patrick. I didn't manage to find this information easily, at
least in BBEdit's docs, but I found a Python reference via Google. I
also discovered reasonably quickly that the angle brackets should be
encoded as < and > otherwise the CLM fails to load. :-)
I assume that the idea is to provide something like this:
<key>Function Pattern</key>
<string>(?P<function_name>(func.*)(?P=function_name)</
string>
where the (func.*) - part of the named pattern definition - is some
kind of regex pattern that matches the names of the functions you're
using, and that you then refer to the named pattern again after
defining it, in order to return it, and then you've got to do two,
function_name and function? Is this the basic idea? Would the
patterns be in parentheses or not? Or I have got it all wrong...?
