Hello,

Is there a way I can extract the named groups from a regular expression?
e.g. given "(?P<testgrp>\d)" I want to get something like ["testgrp"].

OR

Can I make the match object to return default values for named groups, even
if no match was produced?

import re
r = re.compile(r"(?P<testgrp>\d)")
r.groupindex
{'testgrp': 1}

i.e. there's a named group called 'testgrp' whose group number is 1.
