Mr. Raymond has raised a valid point. On second thought, I think the submitted 
patch won't resolve the issue.

>>> import re
>>> r = re.compile(r'\[\s*(?P<header>[^]]+)\s*\]') # as in the patch
>>> r.match('[ section header ]').group('header')  # still has issues
'section header '

ISTM, the only solution to this problem is to strip the section headers while 
parsing the file. Subsequent access mechanism should also follow suit. IMHO, 
section headers should be made case-insensitive as well -- similar to option 
keys.
