 Hi dd32,

 Thanks for re-opening this ticket.

 I was working under the assumption that the characters we simply missing
 from the regular expression due to an oversight.

 It is a powerful feature to support.

 If it is determined under review that they should be stripped from the
 URL, we can always automatically encode the square brackets into their
 entities inside the function.

 Thanks for your time.

 Jason
