Does it mean modify `cpython/Modules/_sre.c` and add `PyObject` information to 
PyError string ?

I already started one actually. But if I don't get to it in a week, I'll make a 
note here and you can take it up.

Ido Michael  added the comment:

I agree it should be more informative and have the same standard as the rest of 
the Errors messages.

Can I start a PR?

[Chris Jerdonek]

New submission from Chris Jerdonek :

This TypeError could be a bit better:

"/Users/runner/runners/2.262.1/work/cpython/cpython/Lib/test/test_nntplib.py", 
line 293, in test_with_statement
if re.search(r'(?i)KEY.TOO.SMALL', ssl_err.reason):
  File "/Users/runner/runners/2.262.1/work/cpython/cpython/Lib/re.py", line 
201, in search
return _compile(pattern, flags).search(string)
TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object

It just says "expected string or bytes-like object" but could include what type 
it found.
