Regarding 1: That most certainly is an undocumented feature. According go perlre:

(?(condition)yes-pattern)

Conditional expression. (condition) should be either an integer in par
+entheses (which is valid if the corresponding pair of parentheses mat
+ched), or look-ahead/look-behind/evaluate zero-width assertion.

Update: I saw, and read that phrase; however, my brain hates me and skipped processing it correctly ;(
