It's not mentioned in the Core Guide AFAIK, but parse's into word
seems to treat parens as if they were blocks.  (Meaning in the input
block).  Here's the standard format...

>> parse [1 ["a"]] [number! into [string!]]
== true
>> parse [1 [1]] [number! into [string!]]  
== false

and here it is with the into blocks replaced by parens which seems to
behave the same...

>> parse [1 ("a")] [number! into [string!]]
== true
>> parse [1 (1)] [number! into [string!]]  
== false

Is this intended behaviour that's safe to use or should it be treated
as an anomaly that may change in future versions of REBOL?
