    The category of a matched node is that part of the match that is wrapped in parenthesis.

    If no parenthesis are give the full name is returned as a category.

    • de.**.test matches de..test, de.some.test and de.some.other.test
    • de.*.test matches from the examples given above only de.some.test
    • de.(*.test) categorizes de.some.test as 'some.test'
    • de.(*).test categorizes it as 'some'
