Nice, thanks.

The appended patch worked ok on these examples for me.

Maybe it isn't ideal because I think you can do weird things like:

    [section."quoted[]name"]

... and this regexp won't pick that up.

I'm inclined to install this anyway, since it's an improvement, even
though it isn't perfect.

Hmm, maybe it can be fixed using a function to search for the matching
bracket.  I will give that a try.
