Another way to do this would be add a direction flag to the 
regexp itself, like re.R (for reverse) if R isn't already in use:

   group  = re.search(pat, str, start, end, re.R)

or something like that.

I continue to want this feature.  It's very handy for writing 
web scrapers, which I do fairly frequently.
