Let's say I have a tuple like
(r'.*:https?://q.q.mysite.org.* (?P<xx>.*)', ...)
It will match both qqq.mysite.org and q.q.mysite.org
(r'.*:https?://q\.q\.mysite\.org.* (?P<xx>.*)', ...)
matches only q.q.mysite.org (which is intended)
('.*:https?://q\\.q\\.mysite\\.org.* (?P<xx>.*)', ...)
Yes, I know, without "r" it's necessary to double the "\"
Therefore I think the second line would be the best solution.
Ok, I'll open an issue.
