Subject: [ruby-core:83409] [Ruby trunk Feature#1873][Rejected] MatchData#[]: Omits All But Last Captures Corresponding to the Same Named Group

Issue #1873 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).

Status changed from Feedback to Rejected

The discussion has been stalled.  It seems the feature itself looks good (note that matz has not said his opinion, thoguh).  Anyway, the name matters.  Please reopen or create a new ticket if you come up with a good name for the method.

=begin
 I suspect that MatchData#[:symbol] should return an Array of values when the same named group has been matched multiple times.
 
   >> m = 'food'.match(/(?<f>oo)(?<f>d)/)
   => #<MatchData "ood" f:"oo" f:"d">
   >> m[:f]
   => "d"
   >> m.to_a
   => ["ood", "oo", "d"]
=end
