Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

Just showing group(0) should be helpful.  And perhaps the number of groups.   
If a string is really long, we can truncate it like reprlib does.

The main goal is to make it easier to work with match objects at the 
interactive prompt.  They are currently too opaque.
