Tomasz J. Kotarba added the comment:

I agree that introducing an example like that plus making some slight changes 
in wording would be a welcome change to the docs to clearly explain the current 
behaviour.  Still, I maintain it would be useful to give users the option I 
described to allow them decide what output they get (i.e. also get texts 
matching the whole pattern and/or those matching the pattern and groups (e.g. 
pattern returned as kind of "group 0")).  As I said though, I realise that it 
is not for me to decide so I am just suggesting it to the powers that be.
Cheers,
T
