So I assume that you want ?XY to be invalid syntax unless Y is <= 040 or one of " ' ; ( ) [ ] ? or # That is the idea. I can see how someone could have written (?a(b)) and think it legitimate, but a person could hardly argue that (?ab) instead of (?a b) is legitimate. It's possible there is some other syntax char I have forgotten that should be legitimate there too. If you can think of one, please add it.
