Comment:

 Now that I look at the code, this would be unnecessarily fiddly to handle.
 We currently can completely ignore the contents of capturing groups and
 having to process them just for a few special cases would be extra work
 for no huge benefit.

 Turns out that `(.*)?` would work as a pattern if somebody didn't want to
 have to pass in empty arguments. So wontfix-ing my own ticket, upon
 reflection.
